The closing date for the house is 12/28 and I'm insisting on going to meet the little boy I want before then, then going and picking him up on the 28th but that plan is currently being debated.

The thing what is really holding us back is all the first time costs. Since I get money for Christmas anyway, I'll probably be using that money and some money from my bank account for his adoption fee and initial costs if we do end up adopting him.

Thanks for asking! Do you run a rescue or do you just foster for a rescue?
