Re: final home study visit(adopt ment)

[Guest guest]

Pam,

What did you think about the home study process? Do you feel like the social

worker is a member of the family now since he/she knows so much about you and

DH? I'm glad that's out of the way. I'm sure hoping this goes as

expeditiously as possible. When should you be starting the IVF process?

Take Care,

year! I wish we had a crystal ball and could look into the future. It sure

would make it easier to plan the in between time!

Pam,

Hope the cats behaved this time It sounds like everything is just

moving right along and that is great. Now I know what that lady said

when she told my that international adoption is alot of paperwork...once

you get past all that....after you send it all to get apostilled then

what is your next step?

Hi

The homestudy process was easier than I thought. Our social worker

was so nice. It was easy to be comfortable with her. She also has to

come for post placement visits after. We have to have 3 the first

year, 2 the second and 1 the third.

We still have to go for the IVF class. They have them the first and

third Wed of the month. So I think we will go mid December. Thats

when we have to bring them in a check. So I thought I would postpone

it as long as possible. I can start the 20th day of my December

cycle. So by my calculations thats about January 1st.

I am glad everything is going well for you so far. I hope everything

looks good on November 30th.

Hi Pam,

I'm so glad everything went well with your second homestudy, hopefully it

won't take too long to get everything appostilled!!
