Home Study Meeting #1

February 22, 2008

Today we had our first home study meeting. It was painless. Why are you adopting? History of Chris and Terri. Tell me about your kids. The social worker is great and very honest - I like her - she will tell it to us straight! One meeting down three to go. Have meetings scheduled for 3/3 and 3/6 with her. The good news is we've made great progress with the paperwork. The bad news is she gave us a lot more papers to fill out! We have doctor appointments scheduled and we knocked out a lot of her forms yesterday. We still have to fill out our personal interviews and get results from having background checks, fingerprinting checks, medical checks, court checks, personal references, credit references, etc.

The bottom line here is we should be done by Mid-April, which means by May, we'll be on a waiting list!
