seriously.
sorry i didn't get here sooner.
2 1/2 hours of "homestudy" meeting...
went straight into finishing homework.
making/eating dinner.
headed out the door for a nursery meeting.
now i'm home.
and beyond tired.
but...it went well.
VERY thankful.
she was delightful.
i think she thought we were delightful...
{how could you not?? the kids made sure she knew our house wasn't always this clean "especially the basement" :-)}
thanks for your prayers.
we have to have another meeting early next week.
pat and i separately.
but then she said she'd have our report written up by the end of next week.
which is great.
i'd love to have it finalized, notarized and sent in to UCSIS (with our I600) by Dec.1
i'll explain the process of that more later.
for now...bed...
{first shipments of shirts are going out tomorrow!!!}

Hooray that the first part of home study went so well! I'm glad the kids let her know the normal state of the house so you wouldn't be pulling the wool over her eyes. ;-) You've got to love kids!
Amen Courtney ~ wow, what a day (or week) you had just today!!!!! Rest GOOD.
So glad it went well. I was praying for you. you are 1 busy lady.

Man, I think about you during the day sometimes and can't imagine getting everything done that you manage to! :)
of course she loved you guys - how could she not? whether your floors were mopped or not, i know that it was perfect!!! love the collages of what your house has a lot of - pictures, books, - i'd add smiles to that too! love you guys!
You don't know me (I came across your blog from a friend of a relative), but I've been following along with the progress of your adoption, and I really admire you for doing your part to make a difference. I saw this article today in the NY Times, and it reminded me of you, so I thought I'd pass it along in case you didn't see it: http://www.nytimes.com/2009/11/09/us/09adopt.html?em
