These are terrible pictures, and I'm not really sure what my hair was doing, but it doesn't matter because...
our home study documents have been mailed! Yesterday we took them to the post office and $5(!) later, they should arrive at the IFS office today! I made copies and went ahead and sent some of the documents on to Lifeline as well, because we will need some of them in our dossier.
I'm sure I looked like an absolute goof taking my own picture holding up the envelope in the post office, but you have to celebrate this stuff, right? :)
When I called my friend Kim at IFS to tell her the documents were on their way and to be looking for them today, she said, "Oh wow - you were fast!" Yes! Two weeks and one day. Score.
So now we wait to hear from them about scheduling our home visits! And in the meantime we can begin working on our education hours that are required. More about that soon.
Thanks for celebrating with us!
So excited for you guys! Keeping you in our prayers as you take this special journey!
ReplyDeleteThere is a great, free conference near Dallas where you can get several hours of training (Hague too), free lunch (chick-fil-a for adults), and childcare. Last year it was in September, so I don't know if you will still need credits then... http://www.adoptionconference.net/ We went last year and really enjoyed it.
ReplyDeleteOh, and several couples teaching the classes went through Lifeline
