Still waiting! A quick update (3/10) Posted about ago

Quick update on the adoption progress: we only have a few more steps before the organization will match us with a child. The next step is I have to take a 3-4 hour psychiatric evaluation to test my sanity (hope I pass). Kelly already took her test and aced it.

I was supposed to take the psych eval last week but the psychiatrist was sick. This means the process has been delayed a week or so, and as a result we will probably be matched with a different child than we would have been matched with if everything had been on schedule. Interesting how one person's cold can reshape a child's entire life. We like to think everything happens for a reason and that we are destined to have the next child in the queue that we get matched with. We still don't know if we'll have a boy or a girl, by the way.

Once this step is complete, we have to have someone inspect our home to make sure everything is childproof. After that I believe the paperwork gets sent off to Korea. Then we prepare to fly out there and go to court in Korea. That's the jist of it, Kelly can update you on additional details or paperwork I might have left out!

Financially we are half way there and have $22k of the total $44k cost committed. Hopefully within the next few months we'll achieve this target with my tax business as well as a fundraiser we have planned coming up in May. Thanks all for your support!
