Matteo's new daycare
First social worker visit for possible adoption #2
the job
Matteo is almost 22 months old
but for now a wonderful photo of the brief summer like weather we had in March...one day 27 degrees....tonight they're calling for freezing rain, so for now the photo is the memory of a brief blip in weather conditions with the hope of real summer days ahead.....
Matteo is so cute! Congratulations on starting your second home study! As you read on my blog, despite what some say, I think the home study is the easiest part of the journey or process. Are you going to be doing another international adoption? You were so fortunate to receive Matteo at about six or seven months of age. Do you know if your second child will be as young?
ReplyDeleteHi Elizabeth, Thank you!! Yes I was very blessed..I adopted Matteo when he was 5, 2/3 of a month old...we celebrated his 6 month birthday in Vietnam...it still seems like a dream...as for adoption #2...I'm still not sure it is going to happen as things have slowed right down in vietnam, but I am going the special needs, minor correctable issue, 0-24 months...that is where we're at...I had considered an older child but as I know Matteo more and more, I think I'd like him to be the older brother...I am open to both...anyhow if I am able will be writing a bit more about this in my next blog....hang in there...I found the homestudy very stressful, the wait only became unbearable when I was told I should have a referral soon and then that didn't happen for 8 months, after being told I should have one within 3 months....I had also almost given up and I feel I had even accepted on some level that all would be well if I didn't adopt and if it didn't work out....anyhow hope to write more...
DeleteWow c'est déjà commencé les rencontre avec la travailleuse social, c'est le fun !

Hi Chantal, yes still hoping to stay with Vietnam, but hope Vietnam wants to stay with me!! xoxo
ReplyDeletehahah c'est très bien dit! C'est rendu tellement long et compliqué au Vietnam, surtout pour les maman célibataire. Mais si c'est ton destin d'avoir un enfant là bas, la vie va s'arranger pour que ton rêve se réalise à nouveau ! xxx
