These past couple of weeks have been full of adoption craziness. Right after we sent in our first big chunk of money and paperwork we began to aim towards scheduling our home study.
Our agency, AGCI, is based out of Oregon so they can't really do the home study. We are having it done through an agency here in South Carolina, called Adoption Advocacy. They sent us a bunch of paper work to fill out as well as scheduled our home visit. They will come and check out our life on the morning of May 26.
After that visit we will meet with them once more in their office.
We also received a package from AGCI that includes our adoption planner notebook, more stuff to fill out, and a workbook for our on-line course we have to take. There is much to do!
On the financial side of things, we have been blown away by God's provision. we are just over a month into fund raising and are just about to pass the half way mark. We had one person, that we don't even know, send us $5000 just because she has a heart for Ethiopia. God is being so good to us.
We know that this whole thing is from Him and we are humbled that HE is letting us be part of it.
Please pray for our home study. It is kind of stressful to think about have your life dissected...

Hi, my name is Bobi Bobbitt and I live in Edenton NC with my husband and our three sons, ages 10, 6, and 2. I feel that God is calling our family to adopt a little girl and my heart has been pricked by God for Ethiopia! I would love to talk with you sometime, I have so many questions! We too have been talking with AGCI and when we decide to do this, they will be the agency we use. Would love to hear from you, jbjjbobbitt@earthlink.net God bless you! bobi
