Another post where I don't have much to say, just that we are getting the house all cleaned and polished for the Home Study Monday @ 1 .... I can't believe it's here.. I'm gonna be a great host and bake cookies or something nibbly like that. Everyone out there say your prayer's for us that she give's us a hint on monday if we pass or not..
You'll be fine! I know the anticipation is nerve wracking, but 5 minutes into the visit, you'll realize that it really is just a formality. I have no doubt you'll pass. Good luck :)
ReplyDeleteThanxs for saying it will be fine.. I keep telling myself it will be...
ReplyDeletehi... i just started reading your blog. what an exciting time for you! hakuna matata- the home study will go swimmingly; lol, at ours, the social worker just talked about himself the entire time. just smile and be yourself :-)
ReplyDeleteRB is right on. They just want to make sure you have somewhere to put a baby and that you're not running a meth lab out of the basement, or that you at least have a baby gate to keep her from going down there. It will just be a natural talk. In one of my kudos to IAC, they told us not only what agency to use (there is no IAC office in AZ), but who to talk to at the agency. We felt like they had a relationship with them and wanted to put us in touch with the social workers who best fit our situation. It helped put us at ease with thinking being gay would be held against us, and it wasn't even a consideration.
ReplyDeletelol on what bobby said. Just get rid of the meth lab before they get there..
ReplyDeleteI knew a few couples they denied because it was offered.
you guys will be fine. Breath, relax. Cookies are good, and dont forget some cheese and crackers, some might not want sweets...lol
we did both.
Good luck today!! I am sure you guys will do great! My partner and I have gone back and forth about having kids and have thought of using IAC. Have all the paperwork in the office... I am enjoying reading your blog about your journey!!
