Home Study is Complete!

We've had a busy paper filled week. We've received an enormous volume of work titled "China Guidebook". I thought it might be an oversized pamphlet of "things to do". I was very wrong! This tome outlines enough work to keep me out of trouble for some time.

The big news is our home study is complete! Now it goes to our home study agency, Lutheran Social Services for review and then on to Holt International, our adoption agency for approval and then back to us to take to Austin to be notarized, certified and authenticated. Whew! The fun part is all of the documents I have chased down like birth certificates, marriage license, etc all must be certified copies that then go to Austin to be authenticated. When we're done with this part we should be very authentic! :)
