Dossier on it's way!

So I've finally collected all the dossier documents and they went off in the mail today!! The only think I'm left waiting for is the review of my fast track birthparent letter ( a shortened version, they send out to more mom's) my birthparent letter has already been approved. So almost done and on the list!! Truly excited!!

Things are coming along

So things are coming along, even thou I haven't posted them. I've sent of my immigration paperwork step 1 and that was approved and am just waiting to get the paperwork for step 2. I also received the second and hopefully last package from Act of Love. I have completed most of the paperwork but now have to write my birthparent letter. I have been procrastinating on this a bit. I feel really awkward writing a letter to someone I've never meet, but who I really want to like my letter. I was hoping to be on the official waiting list by the beginning of January, but more realistically with the holidays is to have all the paperwork done and mailed by January 4th. It will then need to be reviewed and then I should be officially on the list as of (hopefully!!) the middle of January!

Wonderful fingerprinting ink

So today is kind of funny. I need to get an Interpol check done and this of course involves fingerprinting. Well, apparently I have very dainty lady fingers with shallow ridges and grooves (which the other officer teased was just a line to cute girls). So they had to do a full hand print. This is before I have to go do a presentation to the brownies group in town (6-11 year olds). So I get to talk to them while I have fingerprinting ink still stuck on my fingers. I'm sure they'll think I'm a total criminal. I think I'll go scrub some more.
