Homestudy - It's Over - Whew :-)

After much work, stress and sweat we completed our home study yesterday. It took about 5 hours but our case worker is fabulous and made the process go very easy. They asked lots of questions about us individually and together and we have a few things to change, such as adding a few more locks in the garage and moving some things to higher shelves but all in all it went very well. HALLELUJAH!!



From this point it will take 3 to 4 weeks for them to write the home study at which point they will sent it in and we will be licensed by the state. At that point, the matching begins.



I want to take a moment to thank everyone for all your prayers and help; especially -



Marsha; thanks for helping us especially on Saturday - we don't have anything to change on the rooms you worked on so you get an extra hug.



Janette and Jonathan Todd: Thanks you SOOOOO much for the many hours of cleaning carpets, hanging things, and basically turning the house upside down to help us get this done. And all your help after surgery, I really can't thank you enough for all your support and help. Josh and I both really really appreciate it. ;-)



Some extra prayers - I am currently unemployed having been laid off as most of you know but we are confident that God has something in store. Appreciate the prayers and will let you know as the process progresses.



Josh & Juli
