USCIS / Homeland Security Finger printing

Well- this past Friday was a BIG day - we had our finger prints taken at the Detroit USCIS office - it took a LOT longer to drive there then it did to actually take our prints and wait. Very efficient system. In the morning we are going to the local police station for our background check - and then just waiting on a letter from MY doctor - but other than that should have all the other paper work.  So keep your fingers crossed- say some prayers that the form from the USCIS comes fast - it is approval to get a Visa to adopt a child internationally.

So in our preparations - the electrician has been out this weekend and we now have our computer in the new basement office. Still have to really set things up - using a little table at the moment, desk still in the room.  My brother is hopefully coming in the next week or two to help us paint the current office - which will soon be Nate's new bedroom.  Then once we accept a referral - we'll be able to plan more or wait for our new child to decorate their new bedroom.  Just exciting.  so slowly but surely we are getting ready.

the holidays are this week - well Christmas and just LOTS going on - exciting for us all.

Can't wait - lots happening -
continue to follow and thanks for the prayers
Happy holidays - the Backus'
