Well, the background checks are still not back. Boooo! But we did get the approval to start the home study. Yay!!
Shannon, our family adoption specialist, was so wonderful to advocate for us to move along in the process. God answered our prayers. Her supervisor had an open mind for us to complete the home study without the background checks. As soon as we got approval to move along with the home study, Shannon emailed us, and we set the two dates for the home study.
June 11th and June 18th are the days to be praying. Shannon will come out to our house two different times to meet with us and interview us. In the first interview, we will be interviewed together to talk about our family and reasons for choosing to adopt along with the types of children we are interested in adopting. The second home study visit is when we will be interviewed separately.
We're not completely sure of everything that home study will entail, but we trust God prepared us for anything we face in the home study. The rest of the week will be filled with cleaning the house and making sure we're presentable for Shannon's visit.
Please keep praying that the background checks to come through. Our home study will not be approved and finalized until the background checks come in.
Pray! Pray! Pray!
So excited for you! I am praying for you and the children you haven't yet met. Can't wait to hear about the progress. <3 Beth
