The home study is finished
Finally!!! Debbie got final approval on our home study over the weekend. This now means that she will send the home study to Los Ninos (LNI) for them to send off for verification and authentication. Thank God they have decided they will take care of that for us. We will then sign the contract with LNI, send them the agency fee, get our dossier together and send it off for verification and authentication. LNI will then send the dossier to Vietnam for them to approve it. Once that happens, we will be "in the waiting pool."

Meg - Congratulations! I am soooo excited for you, Mike and Willow! How long will the process take? Do you get to request any age? Will you receive a referral from Vietnam like China? I am so happy!
I NEED to know all about the adoption! Details, details, details please!Are you coming to the states this summer?
Much love!

Kathie- We are so excited and thank you!!! The home study should be in Penn. early next week.They then have to send it back here to the embassy in Rome to be put together with our I600A. Once we have that then our immigration "stuff" is done for the most part. You know more about that than I do. Right now I'm just doing what I'm told. Our agency is really slow in their process, but our social worker is willing to push things along for us considering that things take so much longer from here, so that's good. Our dossier should be complete in about 2 weeks(keep us in your prayers). Once the dossier is in Vietnam, the waiting time is between 2 and 4 months!! The referral, well we aren't real sure what will come with it. Vietnam seems to have good knowledge when it comes to the social background of their children, and there should be a picture that comes and of course the medical report, but other than that we don't know. I am so happy that you responded.
We are coming home this summer. We fly into Virginia the 29th of June. We'll get to Alabama around the first week in July. Are you going to be around? I can't wait to see you guys. Tell everyone we said hi and give the kids a hug for me.
Love,
Meg
