Greta,

I'm so glad that you chose to adopt through the SWAN network. I know there are many children waiting in that program for loving homes.

Try to relax about your visit this week. Most likely, your case worker will want to just talk about why you are entering the program, your feelings and look around your home. Don't worry it won't be a white glove test- just to make sure it is a safe environment.

I know when we adopted we also needed to discuss how we would discipline a child. Since you have other children I am sure that you can draw from experience. Our agency also wanted to make it clear to us that we were not to use corporal punishment.

Hope all goes well and congratulations on starting the process!
