Homestudy was excellent!

Thanks for asking and I'm sorry it took a week for me to post. For some reason I'm not getting the emails that new threads have been added anymore. Then I had to find my way back here. But I'm here now.

The homestudy was excellent. We didn't have ANYTHING to fix at all!! I was so suprised. I figured it might be a VERY nitpicky ordeal, but it wasn't at all. Just make sure all the bases were covered and a tour of the house. I was so euphoric afterwards I could hardly concentrate on anything else.

Everything is in order so we were told that we should have our license in the beginning of April...only another week or two. We were also told that now that everything is in and done, if the "perfect" match child for us came into care the finalization could be sped up. That means that now we are just waiting for THE phone call. Scary and exciting....

I don't know what happened to Tigger... maybe she's not getting the emails anymore either. I really would like to know anymore thoughts on what the first day/night with our first child will be like. Are most children part of sibling groups? If you have two at the same time how do you help them both heal? How much contact do you have with birth parents? So much to think about while you're waiting and nothing you can really do about it until you meet the children.

Glad everything went well with your case worker, jl!! We didn't have to supply a letter from a person who would raise our child in the event of our deaths. That is a pretty surreal experience, I'm sure. Did your CW give you a better idea of when your homestudy will be completed? Still on track for the end of April? How exciting!!

Well I should end for now. Sorry again for the delay. TTYS!!
