Interviews complete!

Ross & I are all done with our individual interviews with our social worker! They were pretty easy, basically just going through and asking questions about our self studies we had to do and confirming that our answers were the same as what we wrote. A week from today, our social worker will be coming to our house to do our home visit, talking with Ross & I some more, and talking with the boys. After that, she will be writting up our homestudy and we will be approved. We are so close, I can taste it!!!

Homestudy

Last night, Ross & I met our social worker who I will call "B" for the first time! We felt an intense connection with her and are excited to get to know her better. We scheduled the rest of our meetings and should be done with paperwork and meetings with her by the middle of May. It will then take her approximately a month to write up our homestudy report and then we will be officially waiting!

Super excited but also left there a little uneasy. She told us that families with children already wait much longer than people who have never had children. She has a few families who have been waiting over 2.5 years. This is by far the hardest part for us. Going into this and not knowing what the outcome will be. It's so scary but we are really relying on God to lead us and so far, we still feel 100% led that this is the path he wants us to take. B said that this first year will be the biggest test of our faith we will probably ever experience. We are more than ready to take on that challenge!!!

Fingerprinting:Complete!

This morning, Ross & I got our fingerprinting done! We also sent in our background check forms. We finally feel like we are making some progress! We are supposed to be finding out our social worker this week. Excited to meet her!
