I cannot wait to hear your number! are you ready for monday or WHAT?! hahah who looks forward to mondays but obsessed crazy adoptive parents…I am now STALKING my cell phone *sigh* deep breath!  Christie, our AGCI case worker, emailed me today to let me know she had my dossier and home study sitting safely on her desk, and it will be reviewed on Friday with all the other dossiers…in the order they were received.

What a great feeling!! I am HOPING to mails ours off tomorrow…one more thing to finalize and then we will jump in line behind you 🙂 🙂 🙂 CONGRATS!! Jenn What a wonderful thing to read just before I head to bed. The financial pressure of how we are going to adopt more children is weighing heavily this eveing and this just puts me right back on track. The how is already done right? My job is to trust God and keep stepping.  Just got the word from our home study agency that copies have been made and everything is notarized! Everything will arrive via FedEx in my hands TOMORROW (Tuesday). YAY! And that means…I’ll be joggin, break dancing and singing all the way to the FedEx store to next day ship our dossier, home study and check […] Yay! Still waiting on our case worker to call us with our number 🙂 I have checked FedEx and it was delivered. So, what's taking so long (Ha)! I am glad to hear that your dossier will be reviewed this Friday. Yay, I am so happy for you and I hope that your dossier looks great and you will have some numbers to share on Friday 🙂 Well…for someone who will be starting the dossier shortly, appreciate that you made it look a little less scary! Although I am realizing that I have a lot of work to do to make my house look as spotless as yours!! =) Our home study was approved today!! We've got our dossier ready and waiting to mail off too (thanks to the list you emailed me before the requirements got here in the mail!) HOW FUN that we are in this together! Jenn Hey, if it would help someone to adopt I would volunteer to help them understand and do the paperwork- it may seem HUGE, but it is actually not bad. I would do it several times over (oh wait- i have- he he he he)….to bring home a child! It is happening! God's timing is here! Can't wait to hear your number! Thanks for this post, we just sent in our orientation packet to AGCI and are anxiously awaiting the arrival of our dossier packet. I've been anxious about it from other people's comments, but this looks doable! Would you mind me emailing you with some questions as you appear to be a few steps ahead of us in the same journey?
