The "Legals"


Happy New Year everyone! We had a nice quiet holiday here at home with a visit from my parents and our two nephews. Jimmy is now 13 and Kyle 10; I really can't believe how big they have gotten since we last saw them in April when my grandmother passed away. We took them to Arlington Nation Cemetery, The Natural History Museum and the National Tree on the Ellipse. Today was back to the real world; the holidays are over, back to a 5 day work week.

Two weeks ago we submitted our "acceptance" paperwork to our agency; it was a week before Christmas so we really didn't expect it to move very quickly. Once our agency in North Carolina proof read it they sent it onto Connecticut before it was sent onto Korea. On a side note; the agency in Connecticut is the key to the whole process being the "right one" for us since we are both from Connecticut. Our Case Worker up there lives in Farmington which is right between my hometown and Paige's; therefore, it is only perfect that she be the "in between" person in this process. Usually once the acceptance paperwork is sent off to Korea it usually take 2-3 weeks for the "legals" to arrive. Well; go figure, the legals arrived the same day!
Basically the legals say that SWS approves of the adoption of our son thru FCA pending approval of our I-600 which approves us, by our government to adopt foreign orphan as our child.
So; paperwork is in full swing and once again we wait..........
