Not that it would make any difference but...it was for theft. He was given 3 years probation (about 9 months into it now) and 40 hours community service (nearly done).
It is the only conviction. He used very very very poor judgement in handling a situation at his former employer and they pursued charges. Rather than fight it because he knew he had made a terrible mistake, he pled guilty. Believe me, he's seen the error of his ways and is on a straight path. He's had counseling, confessed his sin and has asked forgiveness from the One who needs to give it (and from me too). He's really trying to make amends.
I figured it would be some time before we could adopt again, but I didn't know it would be 10 years +. We will be too old at that point, I think so I guess our family won't be growing anymore.
Thanks for your replies. I'll look forward to reading more.
