So, I got a call back from the adoption agency. After three edits, they have decided that they don't like the way that our letter and pictures fit into any of their free templates. This was discouraging because the only other option was to pay a designer $500 to create our Dear Birthmother Letter (brochure). . . or so I thought.
I got this news when I was in Arizona visiting my family for my Grammy's 90th (!!!) birthday. When I showed my mom what they didn't like about each template, she said that she thought she could do something custom on Publisher at work. So, we went in after hours and spent two fun days editing it. We took the best of the templates, were able to brighten pictures, and make it fit our desired pictures.
I am not sure what the agency thinks yet, as I just emailed it over yesterday. But at least now, we can make the changes and hopefully get in the system soon. I am so thankful to have a mom so skilled with Publisher who was willing to spend her off-hours at work. My mom is incredible!
