Hows About A Drink of Cosmopolitan
Sorry I havent been posting much. Things are pretty blah around here on the baby front. However, yesterday I got two things in the mail that I wasnt expecting. One was a letter from the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services, Division of Social Services. Yeah, they need to work on shortening their name. Anyway, it was a letter addressed to US Citizenship & Immigration Services (CIS) and I was getting a copy. Basically saying that they have received our homestudy, approve it, and certify that we meet the criteria of NC to adopt a baby. This letter is all part of the process for finishing up our government paperwork (I600). It reminded me that we are still on the path to a baby, even if it seems to be a little halted.
The other letter was from my agency. It was a six month evaluation. Which reminded me that we’ve been with our agency for six months. A few goals have been checked off, and we’re just hanging out on “Dossier is accepted by country of choice.” (for who knows how long). But it was nice to know that they had some sort of evaluation process for how things are going so far.
I’ve mailed in our application for one grant and am working on a few others. And, hopefully I’ll finish up my Dear Birthmother letter soon. We’ll see.
