After MONTHS of various doctors, governmental, & adoption agency meetings, Joni & I just completed our final document in our home-study adoption packet! We are planning to deliver the packet to our adoption agency on Thursday (9/3/09) along with an installment to the hefty fee that will be due at placement.
We are so excited as we CONTINUE this incredible journey together!
From here, we will proceed with numerous meetings/interviews with our assigned social worker(s) in addition to a home inspection/interview and development of our adoption profile over the next 4-6 weeks.
At this rate, Lord willing, we expect to be APPROVED by the agency by December 2009.
Then, we wait.
Wait for a birth mother to review our profile and select us.
Thank you so much for your continued prayer support for us. We are so eager to meet the child/children, whom our Lord has chosen for us to parent. Exciting times in the Bowen household!
More details to come......as we have them. :)
