November is adoption month. November is also my birthday month and I could not have asked for a better present than to have made a decision as a couple to begin the adoption process!! We had been praying and asking God for direction as to how to build our family. We were not 100% sure but its a long process and we knew that if this wasn't His plan for us that He would make sure that the adoption door would close.
We set up the first meeting with our social worker and registered for the necessary adoption training courses. Since we just moved into our new home this created a super busy month. The training sessions took place in another city so we traveled back and forth for two weekends in a row. Learned a lot about parenting adopted children, dos and don't. And also got in a little shopping on the side! I bought the most fabulous skirt for my Christmas outfit. When we weren't in adoption training we were busy doing RCMP fingerprinting and local police checks, as well as doing medicals at the doctors. Busy busy! All worth it to get a good start on the paperwork required.
