Thank You, We Love You, and Who are We?

I never realized just how much went into an adoption. To be cleared by the state and then also a religious affiliated agency is work, that's for sure. We have been asked millions and millions of personal questions. We've had to talk about where we came from, who our families are, what we like to do, how our marriage is, what our future plans are, and even our financial situations. I don't complain about this, just merely noting how much work goes into adoption. I definitely feel for the case workers. One of the reasons I've learned I can't complain is because if I was placing my child up for adoption, I would like to know that they were going to the very best. I'll jump through hurdles everyday if a birth mother will entrust her child to us. Because we are adopting, many of those we love will feel the strain as well and so we needed to say, “Thank You! We love you!”

Right now, we are working on building our profile. This is tough. We could use your input on any of these question below.
What makes us unique?
What do you love about us?
What kind of personality do we have?
What makes us stand out from a crowd?

Please oh please, if you feel like sharing either leave a comment below, or email us!

Hey Britt,
So I love how sweet and happy you are. You are a very creative woman as well, and I love how determined you are to figure something out. I also know you are a very hard worker, which is becoming a rare trait in society today! Shane is hilarious! He is the funnest guy, with such a laid back, easy-going way. A huge reminder of this was when you went to lunch with us, and my son puked all over the tray. UGGGG! I can barely stand throw up myself, but he just laughed, and started to help clean it up like it was no big deal! My hero! (This makes for a great quality in a dad!) You two are so great together, and so loving and compassionate. I know that you'll make amazing parents, and any kid would be blessed to join your sweet family! We are praying for you!
Love, Kim :)

I feel that through reading your blog(which I do regularly-sorry for not commenting more) I have gotten to know you. One of the things that I LOVE about Brittnee is that you are so honest about yourself. You aren't afraid to dig deep and find all the things that could be fixed. Then you do your best to fix them. Amazing!!! Most people just try to avoid the most difficult truths.

You and Shane are such a cute couple. No one could be better suited for each other than you two are. You guys always seem to smile about everything.

I know that you guys will have a child soon. Heavenly Father is saving just the right one for you two. We love you and are praying for your family to grow.

Mindi and Jason :)
