Please Pray...*Update* (Crosspost)

Ok, for those of you who aren't familiar, my dh and I have been talking about fostering/adopting 'someday' since the start of our marriage. Long story short, I felt 'someday' had come, and he was hesitant, for several different reasons: worried about not being 'good enough', needing a bigger home, and my being injured at work and not knowing what Worker's Comp would demand of me. We've worked through the 'not good enough' thing in his head, so that was done...to him, the biggest thing was our home simply being too small. Then I found out that CPS would want me to wait a year from my initial injury before I could get approved...but just recently found out that another agency would happily waive that requirement.

Well...got a call tonight. Friend of mine heard of an opportunity for a house on 5 acres. Big enough for our kids to have a room each, AND one sitting empty. She's waiting for a call about it, and is finding out more info...see if its in our price range, etc.

Dh says, if we get the house, we're starting the process!

If you wouldn't mind praying that this house is something we could afford, that Workers Comp wouldn't cause issues...that this IS our sign that we've been waiting for, and the path God has chosen for us, I would be so grateful...
