So..... I just got home from work and was drawn to the computer so I turned it on and saw no new emails!!! I went back into my funk and realized that I shouldn't be expecting anything as the alotted time frame of 5 weeks isn't over yet. I went about my business and all of a sudden the phone rang and on the caller ID it says WIDE HORIZONS FOR CHILDREN oh, I think to myself, they must have a question about our info. Well, I answer the phone and its our social worker and she says the best news yet I JUST FINISHED YOUR HOMESTUDY!!!!!!!!! I couldn't believe my ears could this be true? She could hear the excitement in my voice and started laughing. Since I was already on the computer, she had me open the document and make sure I could get into it. I can't believe it yup there it was the letter I've been longing to see. We talked for alittle while and she verified our cell numbers again (does she know something we don't) just kidding I won't get ahead of myself!! I'm just enjoying this moment and this very big step. So, now we read it over, email her any corrections and she then gives it to the right people. Of course she won't be in tomorrow so we'll drop her an email for Monday.
A funny thing happened today. While many of you know about the luck ladybugs have surrounding China adoptions, well we thought we'd continue thinking these are lucky for Korea as well. My dad came by this morning to pick up the dog for the day before I went to work and as he walked into the house I noticed something on his shirt One ladybug! We brushed it off but I had this feeling that something good would happen today and it did Yahoooooooooooo!!!!
We spilled the beans alittle this weekend too with my family of aunts and uncles and told them the news and after all went home there was one ladybug on the umbrella outside. After we told our parents we found one ladybug on the ceiling the next morning. Are these signs you ask??? We'll take them.
Yahoooooooooooooooo to a great end to a good day!!!!!! This is really starting to feel real and I got all teary eyed when I read the homestudy. We want this so much. One step closer. Here we come baby.
