Yay! Our social worker called yesterday to set up our first home visit…tomorrow! It’s so weird being on this side of things. With my job at APAC (Alabama Pre/Post Adoption Connections) I don’t conduct the home study visits but I process all of the paperwork for families in my area going through APAC who are adopting from foster care. I am normally the one preparing them for the home study visits, calming their nerves before the visit, etc. And now I am having a home study myself. So weird.
I am honestly not worried or anxious at all about the visits. Is that weird?
Anyway, the first visit is tomorrow evening…and I am maybe even excited about it. Since when is it exciting to have someone pry into every private part of your life? I guess when there is a child or two on the other side of it! :)
I'm so excited for you and Barry! You will do great!
ReplyDeleteWishing you the very best! Can't wait to hear how it goes!!!
ReplyDeleteHow fun! Hide the crazy. And try to put some nicer clothes compared to your work-at-home stretchy pants.
ReplyDeleteHow exciting!!! I'll be praying all goes well, though I have no doubt you both will do great!
ReplyDelete:) So exciting! I can't wait to hear how things went!
ReplyDeleteSounds great!!! Looking forward to hearing how it went. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteThis is such an exciting time for you and Barry! I cleaned like CRAZY prior to our h.s. but we enjoyed it too. She ate supper with us and the kids, being much younger, showed her their art projects, school papers, etc. She watched them play and made it feel like a friend visiting. May your visit be just as wonderful!!
ReplyDeleteEverything will be great!! I know they will love you! Who could not?!
ReplyDeleteThats so wonderful...Praying that everything goes well. Holly
