Blaise and I want to share our journey to build our family. I am new to blogging but thought it would be a good way to share information of our adoption journey with friends and family. Some of you are aware that we have been dealing with infertily for the past few years. It was a difficulty journey but we recieved many blessings and strenghend our marriage. Things happen for a reason and we came to realize that God was leading us towards adoption. In October I contacted Community Services to start the process. We attended an information sesssion in January and started our PRIDE classes Jan. 20. 2009. These classes are 9 weeks and they cover an overview of topics on adoption and parenting. We completed the classes March 24 and are waiting for the next step of the homestudy. We are looking forward to the next steps of this journey.

We choose Community Service route for adoption as we learned there were children in NS that are waiting in the foster care system for families. We are open to 0 - 5yr and sibling group of 2. Often siblings are separated and coming from big families if we can keep siblings together we will. So we ask you to keep us in your prayers as we wait for the next steps and for our future family members.

Love
Karen and Blaise
