Our case worker arrived a little after 10 this morning to begin our home study. Amanda and I were both expecting to be split up, but she kept us together. We answered several questions based on one of the applications we filled out a while ago. The questions had to do with our experiences growing up; how we will raise our own children; and several other personal questions. She was here for about two hours, which passed by quickly. We have two more appointments with her.
Our next appointment will be next Thursday at the agency in Sioux Falls. At this meeting, we will be split up and asked more of the same questions. Then, our case worker will return to our home on March 31st to do a walk through of the house. This will be our final meeting.
Here's some good news: Our profile will be complete and we can be matched beginning the first week of April. They are working with several expectant mothers, so keep praying. It's getting closer...
