Agency Registration Mailed

All at the right time, I suppose but finally I've had the ok to mail the agency registration. My husband is a wonderful man but he has many concerns, rightfully so. This is a huge step, much bigger than I ever imagined. I waited to mail the registration because I wanted him to be ok with it and at last he was but how quick some people make it look. It appears that many people simply decide to adopt and so they do but perhaps it's not as quick as it seems. For some it's years in the making. It's long time a coming. It's always in the back of their minds and for some it comes later in life, when their family is already grown up and now life throws them a curve ball and they get the call.  Is there really "a call"?? I didn't think so at first. How do you get a call? What call? There is no call. A person or persons make a conscious decision to adopt; to give a gesture of help to the world situation of orphans. It wasn't us, we didn't always have it in the back of our minds. Sure we were sensitive to the plight of the orphans and we helped in some other ways but as suddenly as it came down to me that what I really need to do is help in the way of adoption, to give one child a home, it was so out of the blue that really there is no explanation for it other than that I got "the call". Could that be true? Is the call real?  I hope so because I mailed the registration to the FOI agency with the registration check and let the chips fall where there may or let sweet Jesus lead the way.
