Mia Colpa, Mia Colpa!!

Ok so it is "my fault"!! I have been very negligent and have been pretty slack on blogging. In my defense there was the whole WT thing and my travel schedule has been pretty brutal of recent. So much has happened in the last few months it is hard to know where to start. Well I will hit the highlights. The most significant development is that we have our homestudy DONE!!!! We have been deemed "fit" for parenthood! I must admit - Connie and I have 5 degrees between the two of us, we have seen some of the most amazing sites in the world and I have never been so proud of something as when our case worker said - "you guys are approved". WOW! It gives me chills every time I say it.

So now we are waiting for the official paperwork to "catch up" with us - what a nice feeling. Well the waiting continues... We now are waiting to get our official approval paperwork in the mail and then to complete the federal finger printing process and finally we will be paper ready - that should be in another month or so (or at least I hope).

More recently we attended our first official "Gladney event". It was the open house for international programs at their new facility in Fort Worth. And can I say, it was absolutely wonderful. What a great facility. Everyone was so wonderful and we got to meet other couples that had been through the process and some that are like us - going down the road. Well that is about it so I am going to sign off.
