Completed One Stage... On to Another - May 1, 2006

On Saturday Monica and I had our final session of our Pre-Adoption class that our agency requires all prospective adoptive parents to take prior to beginning the actual Home Study interviews. This class focuses on some of the particular needs and challenges that are often a part of the lives of children that were adopted. This class was an excellent requirements as it made us truly think about the life of adoptive families. This could not have come at a better time then now as we have been focused on process, process, process and of course the amazing day that we will meet our child.

Also Saturday marked another happy day for us; we completed every last document and paperwork requirement to begin our Home Study Interviews. This was the deadline that we had set for ourselves and we met it. Having now completed all of the pre-home study paperwork, and the pre-adoption classes, we are able to proceed in to the next stage.
