A New Day Makes A Difference

Sometimes all you can say is,"Well, it is what it is...there's nothing you can do except to put it in God's hands." So with that, I move onward. Thanks to everyone for giving me scripture and warm wishes, it made a difference in my outlook and has helped me remain focused on our goal...bringing our daughter home. Who would have ever thought that blogging would be a nice little support group! :)

We're still continuing to make progress. We had our final home study on Tuesday (9/18) which included the tour of our home and interviews with each of us, including our children. It was short and sweet. Hopefully, we will have our home study in hand within the next week or two. Today, hubby had the day off and we had our physicals for home study and dossier. We also completed our education requirements needed by our agency. Tomorrow, we will be heading to Baltimore to do our fingerprinting (USCIS). I'm not sure how that will go. When we received our "receipt" from our I-600a, we also received a letter stating that our fingerprints were paid for and to report to the Baltimore office during stated hours. No appointment was assigned. I know most of you have waited and were given a certain date to be fingerprinted, so this in a bit confusing. Maybe it's different in the state of Maryland. Sadly, neither one of us can remember if we had an appointment for our last adoption. Like labor pain, you quickly forget the process and the details. Sooo, we'll head down to Baltimore and see what happens---without an appointment. I'll fill you all in on what happens. So, we're moving along--making our lists...checking them twice!

Well, I have to say...I'm looking forward to the end of this week and ready to start a new one! I'll leave you all with another video clip. This one requires a tissue (or two) and will make you ready to jump on the next plane to get your little one!

Enjoy and have a great weekend!
