Approved

Yes, after over a year, we are officially "approved" for adoption.  What does that mean?  It means that the state deems us worthy of adopting a little kiddo and we're so so so excited.  I think my mother-in-law is even more excited/relieved (her fingerprints kept getting rejected, and rejected, and rejected until FINALLY they cleared her!).  So, super exciting and kind of scary.  Going from 2 to 3.  Yikes.  But, we're happy to be moving forward.  But who knows, right?  It could still take over another year before a baby comes, but we're at least one step closer.  For that, we're grateful.
