Thank you to everyone who has prayed for us and supported us - it has been such a full winter and time has moved fast! We completed our paperwork and our parenting classes (which we loved...we can't wait to do the next phase of classes!). We sent in a heavy packet of papers to our agency a few weeks ago and over this weekend, we just finished our last home study visit! We had a great time connecting with our social worker and talking through our family values and adoption (and so much more!). Our social worker said we were one of the fastest to complete our paper work and we sent in the longest personal profiles she has seen... we obviously are thorough ;) This made for a very relaxed home study visit, we wrote so much that she didn't need to ask very many questions!

We are so excited to move forward with our dossier in the coming weeks! We will be sending in the completed home study report, our psychological evaluations, a letter about our motivations to adopt, family photos, applications (that we will write in Spanish!) and more. There are a lot of forms and steps but compared to the home study paperwork, it feels simple!
