The Foxies have great news!!

Yes, but no...that's how I've been answering the question before bursting into the exciting news of our ADOPTION!! Dayn and I are finally on the same page about how we want to start our family and (surprisingly enough) the Universe is lining right up to bring it to us.

We've investigated Chinese adoption, Catholic Charities adoption, and now finally adoption through Denver Human Services (DHS). Our process should be quick, but thankfully not as quick as we expected. DHS requires 27 hours of parenting classes before we get our home study which is necessary before we get a BABY. DHS pays for all of these services and we have a good amount of choice about who we want to adopt (0-3 years old, bi-racial/AA, boy or girl, etc.).

Dayn and I take our 1st parenting class on 3/17, so if all goes well, we should have a little bambina/bambino this Summer! I'll keep you posted. Love, Michelle
