This is early but I wanted to share!

A parent at my school who knows I'm adopting said she knew of a 3 month old little girl who was going to come up for adoption. Her name is Lily. The guardian of the little girl is going to call me this week. Not sure where it will lead to but I wanted to share the possible good news with all my favorite friends on here.

Best of luck!

My husband and I are starting the adoption process for the 3rd time (long story). And we are looking at a 7-10 year waiting list, at which time we will be “to old” according to the rules of our Provence. We are hoping they come to their senses before then.
