Update

I wish when I typed update, that it would be BIG news, but it's not the BIG news that Walter and I and the rest of our family and friends would like to hear. At least not yet anyway. We did meet with our SW for our 18 month home study update. As I type 18 months, I can hardly believe it. At times it seems like an eternity, other rare times it doesn't seem as long.

I do feel a little more hopeful now, at least like we are "doing something" rather than just waiting. Becky told us the plans CSS has to be more public and get information out to potential birthmothers using today's technology rather than relying on the yellow pages and brochures. Of course with anything that requires approval from someone else, this too will take time. But, I am at least happy to see that they do realize that they need to keep current and are taking steps to do so.

So, now we still need a few more pieces of documentation to finish up for the updated home study, but once that's done we can send those on to the attorney and proceed with him. Since he is an attorney and not another independent agency, we can still work with CSS, which is something we weren't sure we could do.

I know all things work together for the good according to God's will and things happen in HIS good time. He knows what is best for us, it is just hard for our human condition to be patient.

I am working on our profile (with photos, etc) again to update it and am getting caught up in the presentation, should I use this particular web site or that one, wanting to make it perfect...but perfection is not required, just sincerity and honesty.
