We had our quarterly meeting with our caseworker at LDS Family Services on Thursday. Our caseworker liked our pass along cards, she thought they looked really nice. I hope that everyone got some, if we forgot you please let me know and I will put some in the mail to you. Also, if you need more let me know I can send more to you. Mike designed the cards, LDS Family Services had a simple template, but we didn't really like it so Mike went to work and created ours. He also designed pass along cards for his brother and his wife. They are trying to adopt their second baby too.
All of our friends and family members who have e-mail also got spammed by us last week with an e-mail to forward to all their friends and family. These things are a little different and not really the conventional way to adopt, but Mike and I feel strongly that by working to find our next little one we will be blessed. I know that throughout our journey of adoption my faith has grown emensly. When thinking of adoption and all of the trials, challenges and blessings my life is given a scipture comes to mind James 2:20, "faith without works is dead". These adoption outreach things (pass along card, e-mail, other things we are working on) are out of our comfort zone, but Mike and I decided that we will continue to work hard at finding a special little miracle to add to our family even if we have to come out of our comfort zones.

Best of wishes to the both of you. Did you know that Megan and Lincoln are also trying to adopt, but they have to wait for Prince H to be at least 1 before even putting in the paperwork.
Keep me informed.
