Adoption Process, Finding the Perfect Family, Not quite....



So I have been thinking of something lately. Finding the right couple and wondering if they are the “ones” or not does not mean finding the perfect couple, no one is perfect. But what it does mean is finding the right family.

I looked on the web and found this quote here about marriage but it still in its own way applies:
“The importance of choice may be illustrated by a homespun concept that came to mind one day when I was shopping in a large retail store. I call it “patterns of the shopper.”
“Wise shoppers study their options thoroughly before they make a selection. They focus primarily on the quality and durability of a desired product. They want the very best…”
Russell M. Nelson goes on to talk about people who bargain shop and splurge. It would be hard not to want someone who was …( fill in the blank…) this or that, but what matters most is setting aside what you think you want for what feels right to you. What feels the most natural and in time you find that you are on the right path towards the right CHOICE.
Peace is the end result of a good decision even if it is hard to make!
Dan and I say, when in doubt throw it out. We would rather walk away and lose out on something then make the wrong decision and we find that we quickly seem to forget about the choice we were making and quickly move on to the right choice even when it is not what we originally thought was best.
