So the countdown is on ... this Thursday (March 7) is our official home inspection day!!! Excited, nervous, scared all in one. I guess the not knowing of what all will happen is the scarriest part. I know we have several things covered already ... our home is clean, we have plenty of room to welcome a sweet little baby, and we live in a safe neighborhood. We have been cleaning all weekend getting ready for the big inspection day and if you know me I HATE cleaning, but all in all it was a good day. The hubby even helped!!
I haven't updated in a while so here's the latest. Everything is right on track. We survived the indivdual interviews with the social worker ... she now knows more about us than our own parents. All of our requred paperwork is in (in case you need to know we passed the FBI inspection!!!), just waiting on a few more personal references and employer references to go. After the home inspection on Thursday we have to complete our adoption profile books and attend an educational day in Jackson, MS on March 23rd - then we will officially be approved for adoption. As I like to say ... We will be Paper Pregnant then !!! Ha Then we just WAIT!!! We wait on God's perfect time for our sweet little one to arrive. In the meantime we will be praying that God will prepare our hearts and home for all the sweet blessings He has in store for us and most of all we pray for the birth mother (birth parents) that will choose us to raise their miracle from above!!!!
Love,
Nick and Phyllis
