Home Study was a Breeze~!






ALL that worrying, there was no need for. I was under the assumption that we would have more then one meeting, but I guess not. She asked us the standered questions, on how we met, our family support, and about our parenting style. She was sooo nice. It was a very relaxing. She toured our house. I was even joking with her, about how lucky she was too see our bed made. She joked back. It was like talking to a friend. She was very helpful, she has 2 adopted children from Russia also, and a set of twin daughters. We showed her our nursery, and she made a comment on how beauitful it would be for our son. Can you believe it, she said, "our son" . It made me think, yeah shes right OUR SON! Up until now we have been referring to"our son" as "the child". I guess for emotional reasons. But it felt good.


Next I'm going to email her pictures of us, the house, nursery, the dogs...ect. Then the only challenging thing now is choosing a set of god parents. Because Russia requires us to pick another guardian just in case anything were to happen to David or I. Then she'll send it all into DSS, and then we wait for them to finalize it. And We start the rest of our Dossier.

Here are two pics of the nursery!
