It's been a while!

There's not too much to report here... We seem to be in a holding pattern, waiting for the home study to be official. We thought we had completed everything, but as usual there is always another document we have to sign or something else to fill out. I took a health form yesterday to the girls' pediatrician for him to sign basically stating they didn't have any communicable diseases. Dave and I are finishing up our National Council for Adoption training, which is an 8 hour course we have to take online. It's very informative, but like the book reading we did, it can be overwhelming. I think I am going to be re-reading and learning when it gets a little closer to travel. Just to refresh! I think that above all, this journey is trying to teach me patience. I have such a hard time with waiting or delays, and that's just part and parcel of adoption! I am really wanting to meet with some other adoptive parents who have also adopted from Ukraine, just to talk with them, and maybe get some insight and support.
