Wait List!!!

As of today, we are on the Gladney wait list!!! We are waiting for young siblings, so we are expecting a long wait, but we are so excited to officially be on the list! :)

On Friday, we attended an International Adoption Meet and Greet at Gladney. It was great to meet the Ethiopia staff and other families in various stages of the adoption process. We especially enjoyed getting to meet our case worker, Jessica, in person and hear her heart for Africa and the children. We've talked so many times on the phone and through e-mail, it was just so nice to be able to sit down face to face and chat for awhile. For any families in proximity to Gladney, I definitely recommend attending a Meet and Greet at any stage of the process. I think we all came away with new information regardless of where we are in the process.
