Home Study

Sorry that we have not written in a while but these past few weeks have been very crazy and busy.  We had to get fingerprinting done so that we could complete the FBI background investigation for the homestudy.  We also had to do a background for some of the states we have lived in, in the past.  We are having a FISH FRY fundraiser hosted for us by some of our dear friends and I have been trying to get all the health department stuff taking care of for it. We received an email short notice from the social worker that she would be coming by the house within a couple days which sent us into a tail spin of chaos trying to make sure we got all the baby proofing things done and bought so we could pass the homestudy. But despite all the crazy things we have going on we have some Great news.


We passed and received approval on our home study.  We are just waiting on the paperwork to officially arrive so that we can give a copy to our adoption agency.  Now we patiently wait for a birthmother to choose us. 

We say patiently but what really is going to happen is fundraisers and school and work and work( oh wait I said that already).  

We can now begin working on the puzzle, which we will make sure to post pictures of as we work on getting it all put together.  We decided to wait until after the homestudy so that we did not have to put it up once we started and be worried about losing pieces. We would like to say a big THANK YOU to everyone who has already sponsored puzzle pieces. 

Actually we would like to say a big THANK YOU to everyone who has been so supportive of us during our adoption journey..

Well until next time.

Love
The Stockwells
