Ideas for Adoption Announcements? - we're moving right along here!
Was wondering if anyone has any poems or suggestions for wording on an adoption announcement/party invitation for older child adoption? Most of the announcements I've found are only suitable for baby adoption.
On the adoption front, we received word while on vacation in July that our childrens' birthmom had agreed to sign surrenders rather than having to go through the termination of parental rights in court. She signed yesterday and our agency is relatively confident that they will be able to take the case to expedited adoption since the birthfather is no where to be found. This means our petition for adoption should be filed by the end of the month. Our kids are doing great. We are adding my teenage niece to the mix for the next year. We are also seriously considering doing foster care of one or two kids once our adoption is final.
