Upcoming Home Study and Yard Sale

by Evie

Wow, we've been busy. There seems to be more things to get done than there are hours in which to do them.

We are excited that on Wednesday, the 25th, we will be in Indianapolis for our first Home Study appointment! It will sort of be like a mini orientation. We'll be taking the boys with us. And perhaps we will go do something fun as a family, like going to the Children's Museum:-)
As I was sitting down to write this post, I noticed there was an unread post in our google reader. Our Agency posted a blog post that is very timely as it had to do with Home Studies.

Paper work is coming along. Although I haven't been updating here much, we are accomplishing some things. We already have a pile of papers that could be notarized. I'm finding that as we work down the tracking sheet, the things we need to gather seem more complicated. We suspect that our paper-chasing stage will take longer than the average. In part, because we have been so busy and also because it feels like the home study is going slowly! But we are chipping away at it and already have half a dozen documents crossed off the list! 

We will miss our agency's monthly Conference call while we are in Indy. Thankfully, they record those and email them out. 

We are really looking forward to Steve being done w/ school for the semester, that will REALLY help us in regards to the adoption and our family life. He also has been working lots of over time. And I will be done teaching Scott Kindergarten in a few days!

I'll soon have finalized info on our garage sale. It seems like it will be the first weekend of June instead of in May. Thanks to all of you who have been donating for our Adoption Fundraiser sale!
Thank you also for all of you who have been purchasing coffee and shopping Amazon through our button.
Thank you most of all for your prayers!

  1. Yea for having it in June! I have to sort through everything I own and would love to be able to donate what I can to your garage sale! But, I can't really do it all while school is still in session.

    you're in my prayers.
