Social Worker Visit #1 August 30, 2010

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
