    Me and my wife have registered with cps for foster to adopt and they are sending someone tomorrow to our house. We are both excited and nervous. Having trouble sleeping. Just don't want anything to go wrong and hurt our chances. I know we are good people. Just need cps to see it as well.

    That place east of Waco....
    As a dad by private adoption, I second the above advice. Also, listen to the information about the paperwork and the home studies. That's important stuff.

    If you decide to go the private route, I can highly recommend AdoptionWorks out of Dallas. They went above and beyond to help us.

    Congratulations!

    Thanks for all the words of advice. I'm sure it will all be good. But you always worry until it's done. If we go the private route I will look into Adoptionworks

    Whatever you do, just don't mention Texas gun talk. That'll ruin it for sure.

    I left you guys out. But we met with they lady. She didn't see any big issues with the house or property. Just some small things like lids on bathroom trash cans and some sort of chime on the doors. But the rest was great. No just have to go through roughly 35hrs of training to get certified and have a fire and safety inspection then a final in home inspection and interview. So al is great for now

    God decided that we can't have a kid the normal way and we have been wanting a family for sometime. So this is our only option

    Well I wish you the best of luck then. I have 4 daughters, three of my own doing and one step daughter (who is oddly a lot more like me that the others most of the time!). These girls are my life and I wouldn't trade them for the world.

    Thanks. I'm still nervous and excited about the thought of being a dad and raiding someone

    My son and I are both living proof, the man that raises you has more to do with who you are than the man that sires you. Good luck and God bless.

    Getting a child is the easy part.
    10 to 14 years later, the real work begins.
    You'll do just fine. Because you want to.

    Wish you the best. Being parents is the best reward. Yet sometime you feel burn out, stress but it is all worth it.
