Another Hurdle!

So another hurdle has been jumped.
We talked to a new adoption lawyer, who is VERY good at what she does. The firm has been named one of the Texas Best in Family Law, and after one conversation, I can see why. She talked about all the extraneous fees that make adoptions so expensive, and also told me about all the ways they can ask for those to be waived because they have such good working relationships with other lawyers (as in the ones who might be appointed ad litem to our little one during the adoption process) and judges and such.

So we are finding that this adoption is not only going to be substantially cheaper than our other lawyer quoted for us, but it is going to be down right affordable. My mother, who was a witness for one of their cases) says that they usually let you pay it off too after paying an initial chunk.
Looks like we won't have to go into any kind of read debt over this adoption (a VERY real possibility, as the rumors you hear about domestic infant adoption being insanely expensive), and probably won't need to ask for any help from anybody else. That is if everything goes as planned, and there are no complications.

Now we know, that with most adoptions, there can be complications. So pray with us that we don't run into any major ones!
