Pre-Application
We did it! Tonight we officially said YES to adoption. We filled out and sent off our pre-application forms. 
After months of saving and praying we felt God's timing clearly. We kept whispering "we're pregnant" to each other in bed. It is so exciting and yet suddenly extremely emotional and confusing. We can't believe it but we can't imagine it any other way. We know this is just the beginning of a long and emotional process. Right now we are keeping this a secret, but it is hard not to shout it out loud or tell strangers. We plan to share with our family and friends when/if our official application is approved. We can already forsee challenges: finances, Will's student status, our age, and doubt...but the great thing is: God is in control! He already knows our family's future and has ordained every step! We look forward to all the support we know we will have when we finally share the news.
