Welcome!!

Welcome to our journey! The decision for us to adopt a child from China has been one of the most exciting things that we have done! We had no idea that a child half a world away could already be in our hearts....this is our journey to bring him home.

Our in Home Study is over!! :)

Well....yesterday we had our in Home Study and we feel that it went really well!  Our social workers came over about 4 in the afternoon and were here for just a little over an hour.  It was very casual and we had a nice visit.  They asked that all the kids be here so Eric, Michael and even Amanda and the girls were here!  We had a discussion and they asked the kids some questions and then they took a tour of the house.  Boy....am I glad that I took the time to do all the extra cleaning!! Lol   I think that this will be our final Home Study meeting and now we are going to be working on our dossier to send to China.  The social workers will be getting all the paperwork together and getting in contact with us if they need anything.  Now the waiting game really begins!  Before we had a lot of things to work on and paperwork to do.....now we are going to have to find other hobbies to keep us busy until we hear if we are approved from China!  Although, I am sure that all of our work has not ended!!  We will keep posting updates as we go along!!
