An update about the adoption stuff

Ok, so its been a while since we had anything to report on this front, so I figured I had better get my butt in gear with our latest...

Our course at Beginnings was great. We both feel more comfortable with the process of adoption, undestand open adoption much more and are ready to welcome a child into our home through the wonderful world of adoption. So many questions were answered, and some great stories were shared.

Monday night this week Karen was over, and we finished our home study meetings. Now she still needs references from a few people (Mainja, your lovely other half is one of them) although she admits her spam filter may have caught them if they were in fact sent back. She also needs Al's medical finalized, and he is working on that! And last but not least she needs our Peel Police clearances. The RCMP ones are done and she has those. So she said she will write it all up and then call us and get us both on the phone to discuss the stuff she inevitably missed. Then she will send it to us to review for any glaring errors. I can't believe this stuff is actually done, and now we wait for her to send it to us. Its a great feeling indeed.

Now we need to get our butt in gear and write our profile. Its a major thing to do, but without it we can't even get registered with an Agency. And we have to get registered to get a baby. Unless anyone reading this knows someone who wants to place their baby into my arms. If you do, let me know!!! :-)

Think thats all there is to our update. We are getting closer...
