So yes, we are adopting from China again! We always wanted at least two children and since adoption is our only way to have a family we had to look at all our options. We decided to do a 'dossier reuse' which means that we get to reuse a lot of the paper work that we had to do for Asher's adoption. There are a few requirements...first off, we have to be matched with a specific type of file, we have to use the same agency and we have to have a child to be matched with by the 1 year anniversary of getting Asher. We will also save quite a bit off the total cost by doing it this way.
We have already found our child and are working hard to get him. So the biggest question we have heard is why so soon? Or my favorite, "are you crazy? Two kids under 3?" Well yes, we are but that's not the point..... :) Honestly our reasons for adopting again don't matter because not everyone will understand it because it is our journey to follow. What is important is that we now know that adoption was God's plan for our life all along and it was something that we were supposed to do again now, not in a few years like we had planned. We had to step out of our comfort zone and do something that seems scary at times.I said this on my personal facebook page and I will say it again... Don't be afraid of the unknown because such amazing things are waiting for you.
