Homestudy Scheduled
We got a call from our social worker today, and our first homestudy visit will be on Wednesday evening, the 25th. It will be a 2 1/2 hour meeting at our house.
The homestudy will be a total of 4 visits -- two with us together, and then one each with Jess and I individually.
I'm nervous about the homestudy because it feels like a really big job interview...for a job we'll have the rest of our lives! It evaluates everything about our lives: our home, our finances, our health, our personalities, our family, and more. Nothing like having someone come to your house to see if you're fit to be a good parent...especially when you already have a child!
I'll be in frantic cleaning mode for the next four days. Guess it's time to finally take down the Christmas tree! (For the record, all the other decorations -- including the ornaments from the tree -- are packed up and put away. We just have to take the actual tree down.)

Don't worry, everything will go great. You guys are wonderful people are great parents, nothing to worry about! Plus, God is in this through and through :)
If they don't let you adopt the kids from China you can always adopt me. (I'm potty trained and can help out with household chores so I do have something to offer the family!!!!!!!!)
