Not too much to update you on at this point, but I wanted to touch base.
We are continuing to gather all the paperwork needed for our home study and dossier. Basically every facet of our lives - finances, medical status, social life, employment, criminal history, etc. – has to be written down on paper and notarized : ) I have never seen so much paperwork in all my life, but we are told (and have come to realize) that it is all for the safety of the child we will one day call our own. So, we continue to move forward with the gathering.
One piece of paperwork that our home study required was a letter from our veterinarian stating that any pets we have are up-to-date on vaccinations. Well, for the enjoyment of those of you who are familiar with our ‘precious’ Kizzie, we got to go to the vet this morning : ) After spending 15 minutes chasing both of them around the house to get them in their carriers (watch out if you don’t get it done the 1st time!), then I take them into the office. Whenever we have to make this trip, I always refer to Kizzie as our “problem child,” as she spends the entire time hissing and growling at the poor vet and his assistant. But, after 45 minutes and a hefty bill, we all made it home in one piece. Kizzie, though, continues to wander around the house, hissing at random objects throughout the remainder of the morning : )
I just keep reminding myself that it will ALL be worth it when we get to travel to meet our child. At least this one won’t growl and hiss at doctors : )
