Our Home Study is day after tomorrow! I am SO excited to finish the last step of this phase! When we meet with Sangeeta (Our Social Worker) we will also give her our preference survey. The preference survey is basically saying what you are comfortable with in an adopted child. It is sooooo hard to fill out! It covers everything from gender, to maternal substance use, to family mental illness and genetic disorders, to race, to unknown birth father or rape. It is so hard to check yes we are ok with this, but not with that... Because it isn't just words, this is the life of a child we are talking about, potentially our child! Iyiyi! We have almost filled it out, but have some questions for our social worker. This survey will help the social workers know what birth families to show our profile to. We are so thankful to be working with such an awesome Social Worker! She is super encouraging and sweet! We look forward to our meetings together and never are stressed by them because she has a way of completely putting you at ease! :)

I will let you know how our Home Study went on Friday!
