Paperwork, Paperwork, Paperwork!

We have officially started the process with sending in a check for a big amount of money for the homestudy and now working on paperwork. There is a lot of paperwork involved along with gathering certain documents, getting passports and fingerprints, etc. I will be spending tomorrow working on adoption paperwork. We are somewhat rushed to complete things faster here so we can finish the homestudy before we move. Everything should work out in the end, I believe it will. I also have to send another check very soon for $435 for adoption education. Both Frank and I have to take certain hours of classes regarding adoption in general, international adoption, adopting older kids, adopting transracial, and adopting special needs. We will have 2 days of classes in April in Denver and it happens to fall during Frank's block leave so that works out great! I just now have to figure out childcare for my other sweet kiddos and we'll be all set! We will be announcing some fundraising ideas soon that we plan to try to use to help raise the fees. Check back!
