We received our first copy of the homestudy today! All 16 pages... It's funny to be reading about yourself and your life. For those of you that have not heard of one before,  It's like a condensed version of our life history, things that influenced our lives, parenting styles, income, home and health information, expectations of adoption and future family plans. It's purpose is to create a comprehensive picture of our current life and background.

Our social worker, Shannon Wilson, was so awesome and made us feel at ease with the whole process. She had good information for us and as it turns out has done many homestudies with several of our friends. Here she is with us at our last meeting before  our youngest son comes home (or what will most likely be the case) our wait time is longer than a year we will see her again in January 2013 for an update.
Shannon and us.
Now onto fingerprints with Unites States Citizenship, Immigration Services.....
