At first we were in contact with our case worker every week, then it went down to every month, then every 3 months, if we were lucky. There were so many people looking to adopt through LDS Family Services, and not many babies. The cost of adoption with LDS Family Services are very small compared to the other adoption agencies. They go off of your income so the price is different for everyone, but it is still in a range that you can afford. After the first year of having our papers in to LDS Family Services we started looking into other agencies to adopt from but the price was so much higher there was no way we could afford it so we just waited and waited to hear from LDS Family Services.
Two years passed without any good news from LDS Family Services. We could update our profile, start handing out pass along cards to people to see if they knew of anyone who was thinking of placing their child up for adoption, but because the wait had already seemed like eternity, I had given up on the fact that we would never be able to adopt a child and that I would never be a mother.
