homestudy wrap up-

I got our personal letters from two friends yesterday but one is not quite complete. They left out that we are good parents to adopt Ethiopian children. Well, I hate to be picky but I'd rather have it done right. So we need to get that redone.
We have a few things in town to get done for it:
  • passport photos for each of us
  • print family photos
  • pick up house photos
  • get fingerprinting done at police dept
  • wait for homestudy to arrive
sounds like a lot but i believe it can be done in a day. the only draw back today is it is literally 0 degrees outside!
Also, last night at church a friend of ours cleans another couples home who is interested in adopting. She asked if she could connect us and I gladly said yes. This is amazing because we live 5 minutes away from each other in a rural area. God you are so cool.
I talked to my girls about reading God's word and I am going to stick to making Wednesday nights Bible study nights for a while. I love this hunger God has given me for Him and His word.
The book of James was wonderful reading before bed last night. That may be our focus for the next few weeks.
Hope all is well for everyone else!

Isn't it fun seeing everything come together and knowing each day brings you one step closer to your little one. Good luck getting everything crossed off the dossier to do list.

You're getting there! Crossing things off the list gives you huge satisfaction, doesn't it?!
