Things have changed...

We have taken baby steps towards starting the adoption. Man have things changed in the last 4 years. We got an e-mail from the social worker with the homestudy documents required. I looked at the e-mail on Thursday and went into total denial. I closed it up and went about my day thinking maybe God does not want us to adopt again. (we know that's not true, but when the tough get's going I was outta there ; ). Anyhow on Friday I opened it up and made copies of everything we have to do and put it all in a folder labeled JOY. That was to help keep me willing to proceed. But today I grabbed the bull by the horns aka opened the folder up, and started reading and organizing myself. I made our fingerprint appointment for Tuesday. So we have started. WHEW
So many things have changed we used to go to the county jail to get fingerprinted now you have to go to a special site and have them done. So many new requirements. I think it would be easy for a first time adoptive parent to say forget it. But we shall move along according to the system and money supply. On that note this next Friday and Saturday I will be having a yardsale with all the proceeds going to the next step of Operation JOY.
Hope all is well with you who come by here. Have a great day!!!
