We just had a very wonderful phone call with Kierstin and her husband tonight and I am totally over my 40K panic attack from earlier in the week. I have to update this blog tomorrow before everyone out there thinks I am still in that funk! Loved your blog and so excited about your story and can't wait to hear the good news!will + adrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11504788974852966314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1536183239879701045.post-1009686166240682572010-07-16T18:46:44.939-04:002010-07-16T18:46:44.939-04:00I found your blog thru Kierstin's blog and I a...I found your blog thru Kierstin's blog and I am not sure if you have requested info from Adopthelp or not but they are amazing and very reasonable on pricing..... 25K to 35K and that includes everything.... home study and all. It's worth a phone call and another info packet in the mail right? :)JS and Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14047844102276318383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1536183239879701045.post-92225239272288219322010-07-16T08:12:43.323-04:002010-07-16T08:12:43.323-04:00Thanks Melodie and Kierstin. So thankful for all ...Thanks Melodie and Kierstin. So thankful for all of you adoptive and hopeful parents out there to keep us motivated! I think we are narrowing down the field by looking at costs and just going with our gut. I've emailed requests for about 10 packets, but have yet to receive one. Hopefully soon we'll be able to lay this all out on the dining room table and pick the best fit. (I had emailed the 40K people for a packet last year and then forgot why I tossed their information out. - Now I remember.)will + adrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11504788974852966314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1536183239879701045.post-32720432313229314292010-07-15T22:08:59.684-04:002010-07-15T22:08:59.684-04:00I can't wait to talk to you-- it's not tha...I can't wait to talk to you-- it's not that much for domestic-- depends on the agency you are using-- I did get that quote from one and just had to laugh!
