Final Adoption Class- Scheduled for November 5. It’s Med Admin. Because we will technically be fostering our kids for the 6 months or so that they live with us prior to their adoptions being final we are required to take this class. It’s the most tedious thing but I understand why they teach it. Basically if you have to give a Tylenol to a foster kid you need to put on some gloves and follow protocol including documenting the pill in a binder. Every. Time.
Final batch of paperwork- signed, dated, and in an envelope addressed to our social worker, ready to be mailed tomorrow.
What’s next?? Once our SW gets our paperwork and we’ve attended the last class then she will give us the go ahead to start picking out some kidlets! I don’t expect to be matched right away, I’m being realistic. But I see a really fun Summer 2013 in our future!!! I’m hoping by then we’ll have been matched, approved, and have completed our pre-placement visits…that means we’ll need to hit up IKEA for some kid beds!
