The phone call went really well. We talked for about 35 minutes and it felt very natural and easy. What a relief! She asked us a few things like
- Do we have any names picked out? (We didn't, but named a few to give her an idea. We like classic Biblical or saint names.)
- Are we "very" Catholic? (She's Baptist and didn't know anything about the Catholic Church. I emphasized how much we love Jesus our Savior and read our Bibles. She wanted to make sure the baby was raised in Christian home.)
- She sees we want 4-6 kids (at least!!!). How far apart will we want to space them? (We said however God chooses- but ideally 2-3 years...)
- What kind of contact did we want with the birth mom? (We said it depends upon what the birth mom wants and what kind of relationship we form.)
And more! I have to run but had to update you ladies! I'm supposed to hear from our case worker on Monday. PRAYING!!!!!
THANK YOU!
