Can I get a huge huzzah from the crowd.? Yes indeed folks, Leslie and I are scheduled to meet with our adoption specialist this upcoming Monday. Whew! You can probably feel the satisfied exhale by me from where you are sitting/standing/laying.
I've got to confess, the lack of perceived progress in this journey has been starting to get to me. All we have been doing is filling out mountains and mountains of paperwork. If it isn't a psychological questionnaire, it's a Child Project Services form for all the states we've lived in since we were 18. Oh, and there is the criminal background check from the Westfield PD and that thorough physical workup from our doctors. Good news, we don't have TB! Can I get another huzzah?
I know this will be a long process and I know I have to have patience. I guess I just wanted to feel like things were moving forward. To date, it feels like the wheels have been spinning and gaining no traction. I think I will begin to feel that traction after our first visit on Monday.
When Leslie spoke to the Adoption Specialist yesterday, she got the sense that we'd be done with all our interviews/sessions withing 5-6 weeks. That would be wonderful. Once that is completed, guess what is next? Yep, more paperwork.
