Happy New Year! We are hoping and praying this is the year we bring our Little A home.
Over the Christmas holidays we were asked a number of times where we are in the process so I thought it was time to update this ol' blog.
We have our final homestudy interview on January 18th. Once this interview has been completed and we pay our homestudy agency our caseworker will begin writing our homestudy report. The homestudy report will then be sent to our placement agency (Holt) and then to the government for us to be approved as adoptive parents. Between now and January 18th, Daniel and I have a few more training hours to complete as well as our CPR certification.
While our homestudy is being written and sent for approval Daniel and I will gather all of the documents needed for our dossier. The dossier along with our approved homestudy report will be compiled and sent to China to be approved by their government. We hope to have all of our paperwork in China by April (there are a number of factors at play here and this may not be an accurate time frame).
EXCITING PUZZLE UPDATE- 1072 puzzle pieces have been sponsored! A picture will be coming but we are behind on putting the sponsored pieces together. Thank you, thank you, thank you to all of you who have made a donation and sponsored puzzle pieces. We are over half-way done with our puzzle fundraiser.
Thank you for your continued support as we walk this happy road. We cannot wait for our referral and the awesome privilege of bringing our girl home!
