We had our adoption training this weekend. 10 hours of classes. Tony went to all of them and I went to two. Hopefully, I'll be able to make them up online. (my other option is to go to them in person next spring...)
I was so encouraged to learn that a lot of what they teach you to do are things that we already do with out children we have now; Co-sleeping, baby-wearing, no crying it out.... generally what you would read in an attachment parenting book. I'm interested to hear what they think about breastfeeding an adopted child. I'm part of a group of women online who have successfully done this or want to do this... I think it would aid in the bonding process so much...
For now, we wait. Tony and I have doctor's appointments to make, one more paper to fill out and references to collect. Oh yeah, then there's money... haha.. But I know that what we need isn't even a rain drop in the ocean of resources our heavenly Father has... :)
So then, we must immerse ourselves in the culture and history of Korea. We need to make it a part of our lives. So study, study, study... :)
