Home Study Begins...

Well, we met our delightful social worker and began our home study this weekend. She was at our house for FOUR hours!!!! I don't know if that is normal, or if it is excessive, but she was so kind and willing to answer so many questions that it just wen on for ages.
She seemed to like the house, she was great with the dogs and she was totally in love with our boys... who wouldn't be?!? They are fantastic... not that I am biased or anything!
So now we just have a mountain of paperwork to get through before we officially begin our wait.
We are enrolling in a dual program in which we will be eligible for domestic or overseas children so we won't know until we have a referral from one source or the other where our baby will come from. I am at peace with this mystery and am ready to begin our adventure!!!

an update on the last post. Matt's student who presented about adoption with both of her mothers, caused such a sensation that she got to give a talk to the PTA about her presentation last night!!! We were all there to support this amazing young girl. I feel so blessed to see such a wonderful outcome for an adoptee all grown up and ready to go out into the world. It helps me feel very, very optimistic for our baby's future as a happy well adjusted soul, at peace with being adopted.
