Waiting For Panel

So here we are... only seven days away from going to panel to be approved officially as adopters. This is a significant milestone in our journey and after reading other blogs from members of New Family Social and finding them really useful I decided that now is the time to start documenting our own journey.

Going to panel is only a milestone however, not the start of our journey. The posts below reflect on the 'story so far' and bring things up to date. You will see throughout this blog I'm likening the various stages to The X-Factor as it feels very similar... from first audition, to boot camp, to judges (at our) houses, to the live finals and finally (hopefully!) the record contract! This of this blog as my 'Xtra Factor' highlights show!

My next entry will be on Monday 6th June post-panel when we will find out if we have made it through to the next stage... the 'Live Shows' (Family Finding!)
