We are moving....

forward with the adoption...I have never been one to move slow. So imagine how I am handling the adoption process...which by nature is a marathon, not a sprint.
So where are we? We are working on what feels like lots of things at the sametime, but really its only two things at the sametime...our homestudy and our dossier. But both of those things have TONS of paperwork. Some of it is the same, so that kinda makes it easier and it can also make it a bit tricky. Some paperwork to one agency doesn't need notarized and some does...ahhhh...make sure it goes to the right agency!!!!
We are walking forward and takin in all the paperwork as it comes...and so far WE are staying on top of it. Brett has been amazing at taking time to fill in as much as he can. We were in the car two hours on Saturday for our homestudy interview...so he filled out paper on the way there. Then ofcourse we got a fresh stack of paperwork from our HS caseworker...so I filled that out on the way home. :) We will win! We are a great team!
We are super excited. We are a bit nervous...we continue to openly talk about genders and ages of the kids. And our caseworker is right...if we were handed two pics and told...these children need a loving forever family...ofcourse we would take them. But in my pathetic human mind...I think I know what is best for our family. I ofcourse want another girl around Z's age and a boy around E's age. But in the end...we know God knows best. More to come...I'm tired from checking out Classical Conversations this morning...which is a whole other post for another time...on our family blog.
