Second Home Visit

Wow, talk about intense! Our second home visit included separate, 2 hour interviews, each. When they say they will get to know you well, they weren't kidding! We were asked every personal question under the sun! It's nice to know how thorough Bethany is.  They definitely do things the right way. Now I know what they mean when they say they (the case managers) become good friends with their families. They get to know everything about us! Our third and final home visit is Nov. 6th.  Need to get the smoke detectors up in each room and the locks on all the cabinets before then!

First Home Visit

Today we had our first home visit!  Kate came out and met with me and Frank in our living room.  We discussed our lives openly with her, talking about our relationship, jobs, schedules, faith, community involvement, family and friends.  We also did a home safety check. Everything checked out good, but we need to get those plug protectors on, baby proof those cabinets, and install some more fire alarms! We love Kate our case manager!  She is sweet, caring, and compassionate. We are so lucky to be working with her! Next visit is scheduled for October 29th and the third on Nov. 6th. Then we become a waiting family!!!!!
