Home Study update

We had our 3rd update for our adoption today.  Our social worker is so sweet and great at her job.  God has placed her in this area and I'm so thankful we get to work with her.  She explained a new program to us (we had heard of it but didn't know the details) that allows you to adopt a child with special needs from China while you are waiting to adopt your healthy child without having to do extra paperwork.  Basically, you are allowed to adopt 2 children with 1 set of paperwork (which we already have completed).  We would have the option, because our referral is still 12-24 months away, to adopt the special needs child now, travel and come home.  Then we would be home a year or so (you have to be home 1 year) before our time to get our healthy referral.  Or, we could wait until closer to time for our healthy referral and apply for special needs and then only travel once to get both children.  You get to choose what sort of special needs you are willing to accept.  With Doug being a Physical Therapist we would choose something that was orthopaedically involved.  We're not even sure if this is God's plan for us, but our wheels certainly are turning.  It seems that everything seems to go back to finances in the world of adoption.  Could we afford 2 trips to China?  We would still have to pay fees in China for both children, but things would be 1/2 price (sounds tacky, I know) for the paperwork her in the US.  I know there are people out there that have a heart for adoption, but don't want to adopt themselves.  They would instead like to help others finance their adoptions.  I wish there was someway to get those people in touch with people who need the finances.  Although we always need money for our adoption, we are too proud (I guess that's the word for it) to just ask people to help us out.  We feel that God will provide the money if this is His plan.  It's a slippery slope.  We think that if we can't afford it, then we shouldn't do it.  But, the problem is, we can afford to CARE for these children easier than we can plop down $5,000-$10,000 at one time for something like travel or updates.  Hmmmmm, wonder what to do????
