my friends,

I know that I have been MIA, but I have been so busy with our adoption process. We had finished our classes last month and were waiting for the social worker to call to start our homestudy. We got the call yesterday

so we will be starting with the homestudy in two weeks. I am hoping that we finish with that step by the end of May, after that it will be the certification and the

for placement....hopefully befero the year ends we will have our little boy/girl at home!...I will keep all of you post it as we get more new news

I know that I don't post more in here, but I Iurk a lot!
