Not So Fast

If only the service agreement was that simple...

We didn't get the service agreement signed and returned for three reasons:
  1. I've asked a few friends/family to look over the agreement and give me their thoughts. One person is a lawyer and serves on the board of another adoption agency. One person is a social worker and does adoptions in CA, and the third person adopted recently from Korea through a different agency. I'm curious to see what they say before we sign the agreement.
  2. It doesn't exactly fit us. It mentions that adoptions in Iowa have to have their homestudy done through this agency. Although they've already said on the phone that we might be able to have another person do our homestudy since we're so far from West Des Moines. Should this be the case, we would need to have an addendum to the contract.
  3. Upon returning the service agreement (aka contract), we would need to send more money than we currently have saved up.

God, it continues to be our prayer that You would be glorified through this process. We want to love a child that needs a family!
