To say we’ve had a wild summer is an absolute understatement. To keep things short, Drew changed jobs this summer and therefore caused us to have to pause in the adoption process for a couple of months while we get situated. While that pause felt like an eternity, we are moving full force ahead to complete all of the necessary items for our dossier!
So, what have we completed since the first home study?
-The full home study application
-Autobiographies
-Parenting explanations by way of discipline and reward
-Financial Statements
-Scheduling of our Physicals
-Fingerprints and Cashier Checks
What’s next?
-Home Study #2 (Tomorrow)
-More paperwork that needs to be notarized
-Reference Letters
-State papers
-More approvals
-Immigration papers
-Two more home studies (apparently our interrogations-eek!)
How much have we raised?
-We are SO pumped to say that we have raised a good $7,200! Praise the Lord! Seriously, it has been such a faith builder to see the people who care so much for our little guy. We've had reallllly old friends come out and get a piece, to acquaintances, and of course, some precious family. Our goal to raise at least another $12,800! And, we're confident that this can happen! Our hearts are SO full, and incredibly encouraged.
Love to you all...more to come this week! Drew will be updating on Wednesday regarding our home study summary :)
