10/19/09: We complete the adoption profile packet!

Tonight, Joni and I completed the adoption profile packet that birthmothers will review when they select their children's adoptive parents.

Social Worker Interviews COMPLETED.

This week, Joni and I completed the necessary interviews in the adoption process. The past few weeks have include a couple interview followed by each of us having solo interviews with the social worker. Now, we work on our adoption profile that the birth mothers/parents will review in their selecting potential adoptive parents.

We will deliver this profile (4 copies) to our social worker when she comes to our home on 10/20/09 for the "home inspection".

Thanks so much for your continued prayers!

Joni really enjoys this song!

Quick trip to Jackson Falls with my bride to see the waterfall after the rain.

How adorable! :)

9/3/2009 - WE SUBMIT OUR PAPERWORK!

9/3/09 - After over two months filled with doctors appointments, psych reviews, 8-weeks of adoption classes, and time spent to complete the necessary forms, we FINALLY delivered the home study packet to the agency this evening.

WHAT A GREAT FEELING!

Though we still have a few more months of process ahead of us, our completing the home study portion lifts a huge weight off of our to-do list. Next step, we schedule the various social worker interviews/sessions and home inspection visit.
