Intro

So I'm not usually one for blogging and find it difficult to put my thoughts into words sometimes so this may end up of endless amounts of ramblings and rants... but into the intro.

Me: I'm a 26 year old female, have been married to my loving husband for a number of months. I work as a Registered Mental Health Nurse within a Dementia care home, which is always interesting. I have many different hobbies and interests. Currently I am working on a patchwork quilt which will be interesting when I have completed it.

Hubby: Is a 34 year old... Obviously married to me for a number of months, however we have also been going out for the past 5 years... lol. He is a Teacher at an Independent School teaching Science to 11 to 16 year olds...

 As you may have guessed from the title of the blog we are taking the first steps into parenthood.. Granted it's not how most people do. Due to Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, becoming pregnant naturally has proven itself to be fruitless apart from a mischarage last February. So... We have decided between us to take the first steps to parenthood through adoption.

Last night we went to an adoption information evening, where they spent the time telling us a lot of information which in itself made you realise quite how much they are going to want to know before you even take the first steps with them. We both came home with our heads full of information and thoughts on what we want in the future. 
Some of it is daunting, knowing that they will dig into your life in such a way, they will know everything about you and yes that seems scary but at the same time we both understand why it must happen. That and knowing that if they take you on and you end up getting to the panel that will be very scary, 12 people sat around who make the decision as to whether or not you can be linked to a child...
