[QUOTE="The Luke, post: 662090, member: 1976"] For those of you who are still following this, I thought I'd give an update. We've been "live" for about two months now. So we've been getting situations of babies that are available for adoption sent to us. As of right now, we've presented to about 9 of them, 6 have chosen another family and 3 we've not heard anything. 1 of these we got incredibly close. But it was through an agency with a terrible reputation and something just didn't feel right. So, through a lot of heartache, we turned it down. And it ended up being a scam, which could have left us with no baby and all of our money gone. So thank God that we followed our instinct. We've been getting a little discouraged to be honest. When we started all of this we were told a budget that was an average price and that we should aim for. Out of the 44 situations we've received, 11 have been in our budget. Most of which In that price range have been pretty rough situations. Whereas the healthier, safer situations seem to be significantly outside our range. I think we've exhausted our resources. For the most part, our friends and family have financially helped as much as they can. And it has been incredible. But we are still short. So I've been building lamps, tables and everything I can in order to scrounge up as much as I can to help make this possible. I'm still considering organizing a ride if enough interest is shown. I'd like to turn it in to an annual deal and help out another family in the offroad community every time. I think it could turn out great if i could combine it with a 4cyl race or something of the sort. Sorry for the long/what I feel to be a negative post. Just been one of those days. We will get through it though. God has our baby out there somewhere. It's all in his timing.
