Stepping Stones

I am happy to report that we are slowly stepping through the paper part of the process. Today I met the social worker who is doing our homestudy. She's so sweet, and I'm so glad that she's the one working with us! Bad news is that she is only working there for one more month. So, she'll be doing our interviews and another woman will do our home visit and write up our homestudy. Anyway, I turned in all our homestudy application paperwork today, and that is a huge load off my mind! The application checklist was 18 items long, and it seemed to take FOREVER to get through it! But, it's done now. :)

Also on the list of happy things is that we are practically done with our dossier, too. We have one more document that we are waiting on to be mailed back to us that needs to be included in the dossier. Now, we can't actually turn it in until our homestudy is completed, but just having our part of the dossier done will wash a huge wave of relief over me. We're working through the process, and I'm feeling good! Come on, sweet baby!
