Blahhh

Well I was going to update a complaint and be all sour puss about why I'm frustrated today.....BUT instead I will patiently email my cw and find out when our license will be changed. I also won't mention here that I was told it would be changed last Thursday or this past Monday. And I WON'T point out that it is now Wednesday. The End.

A - age 5

Our CW contacted me today to tell me that a different CW reached out to her and said that 2 of her families were potential matches for A.  I received some of the information on him but I have some questions that I'd like answers to before we move forward.  We had actually inquired on an "A" age 5 back in January.....I wonder if it's the same one???

UPDATE:  I ended up asking my cw if it happened to be the same A that we inquired on and it turned out it was!  So we actually got our first MAYBE from a child's worker!!  Even though it's a maybe.....it's a big difference than hearing NO responses at all.  :)

Match Meeting on 5/26

My caseworker notified us today that their local adoption prep team will be having their own match meeting.  That team has asked the CW's to submit home studies, then they will go through each home study and match them with a child in their unit.  If we get matched, they will let my cw know and she will then show us the child's profile and see if it's a good fit. 

It sounds like a really effective way to match children and adoptive parents within their own region.  The actual date of the meeting is on 5/26 - if we are chosen as a potential parent, we will be able to meet and visit with the child(ren) on that day.  SO different on how the usual match meetings are, but I'm kinda excited to see if we are a match for anyone.

Inquiry - 3yr old "T"

We received a broadcast on "T".  Not sure what area of Texas the broadcast is coming from since it didn't indicate it on the information I got.  I decided I wanted to update whenever we inquire on a child(ren).  I wish I would have started doing that since the beginning.....oh well.....we start today! :)

License Change Saga

Got an email from our caseworker saying that they will be able to start working on our update tomorrow.  If they don't need to do references again, it may even be complete tomorrow and CW will be able to turn it in to the supervisor for approval.  Wondering how long that will take......I'm thinkin.....we'll FINALLY have our license changed in the month of May!
UPDATE:  Late in the afternoon I got another email stating that our CW had completed our family summary and had submitted it to their supervisor.  THAT happened a lot faster than I thought it would.  Here's to hoping that the final approval will happen just as fast! :)
