2nd post placement visit and some news

 We had our 2nd post placement visit today. That is where the social worker that did your homestudy comes out and visits you and the child and asks you questions about how things are going. Then she writes a report and sends it to the agency that did your adoption they send it onto the country you adopted from. It lets that country know that things are going well. I really don't mind it I think its a good idea and its really no big deal but it did cost $500.



here is Vahnya with Bev our social worker.











Josh got his drivers licence today wooohoooo! He is so grown up lol






I set up Vahnya's appointment for early intervention for Sept. when I was talking to the girl on the phone she was asking about him and she acted surprised that he already knew a bunch of sign language and also could say at least 13 words. she was also surprised that he was so healthy and he has been home only 4 months. lol guess he will be surprising lots of people in his life better get use to it. lol



                   NEWS!


Now for some big news! We have decided to do a new homestudy for a new adoption.Or a homestudy update is what it really is. We are doing that in January at the same time she does the 3 rd post placement report. It doesn't mean we are going to adopt or have a child in mind to adopt right now. We just want to keep our options open and being homestudy ready as they call it. Just makes thing go much faster and smoother when the time comes that the Lord tells us it is time.. It is going to cost us $1500 for the homestudy so we will be saving and maybe be doing a couple fundraisers to help.If any one wants to help out please do.As you have probably learned from Vahnya's Adoption,Adoption is not cheap! we can use all the help we can get.

With big hearts for children. I really think it is great that you guys are willing to adopt again! I want to adopt when I am married <3 May God help you in your journey! You are truly blessed!
