First Homestudy Meeting


Well, to put it plainly, it was a piece of cake! We went so crazy cleaning the house and mentally preparing, and it was so much more relaxed that we imagined. It did last almost 2 hours, and our next and final meeting will be 2.5 hours long. We mostly talked about the baby that we are hoping to adopt, and our SW allayed many of our fears. I think we always imagine the worst possible scenario, and she told us that most of the time, it is nowhere near worst case scenario. The good news is that our next meeting is in less than 2 weeks, and we are all done with paperwork! The next hurdle is our profile, but we have the text written and the photos selected. We meet with our designer-friend next week to get that started. It is hard to believe how fast this is all coming together. While the wait might be long, the process has been really manageable thus far. I am excited for the fun stuff yet to come, like decorating the nursery, shopping for furniture, and of course, the arrival of our little one.
