Things are moving along

Only 2.5 days left with the kiddos at school! Then I get to work on the house stuff and the Home Study stuff. It will be nice to sleep till 5:30 (that's when Chris gets up) every morning!

I talked with Joy this afternoon and she will let us know the day she is coming down after talking with her husband (he will have the kids that day). We should know tomorrow if she is flying down on the 20th or 27th. We will pick her up at the airport and take her back (saves the cost of a rental car).

She sent us the information for a psychologist that one of the other families in the area used for their Psychological Evaluation that is required. I don't think that insurance will cover any of it (at least that is what I've been told so far), so I need to find out how much it will cost us. Please pray that insurance will cover part, if not all of the cost (or that the cost will be covered somehow!).

I've gotten information from Texas Children's International Adoption Clinic, and it will cost us $500 to set up a file for one child (each additional child costs $300). This will enable us to sit down with a pediatrician in the clinic and go over the Medical Check List that we need to re-do and re-submit. Please pray that God will provide at least $500 to set up a file.

We are still waiting for a written estimate from one of the painters we had look at the house,but at least we have picked out the colors we want!

I am about halfway through the 2nd Adoption Book (Adopting The Older Child [written in 1978]) and still have one more to go!
