Well last week we had our first meeting with the social worker. Needless to say I was freaking out - and Craig was nervous too. WE think it went alright. But now its all the paper work and all that. The training will not be bad at all - honestly think she picked some really good classes for us to take. And one of the books I had marked a star by that I wanted to read anyhow - figured it would be a good resource. So now we just get all the stuff down.
Still very scared - but I know our child is out there waiting - they've been waiting longer than us. I heard 5 families from the agency brought their children home this weekend - can't wait to hear from them. And two more go next week! SO exciting! I need to look up their blogs and follow them all.
OUr next steps - one on one with the social worker - Craig goes first and then me. Then its the home visit.
OUr friends Tammy and Michele really helped us organize the basement this past weekend - we now have a spot ready to move the office so that the current office will be Nate's room. We just need to have some electrical work added down there - but that's not too big of a deal.
Thanks for the prayers - we'll keep everyone posted
Gail
