Anxiously Waiting

My social worker took my home study to my agency last Friday morning.  Apparently it can take anywhere from five days to three weeks for your home study to be approved.  While I wait I am starting to work on the many, many things my country requires for its dossier.  The list is very extensive and some of the items quite a challenge to obtain.   Started back at school today and it was good to see the kids.  My how they have grown.  Some have shot up over the summer.  They were thrilled to know I hard Party Rings (a kind of cookie) for them as well as candy from England.  Oh, how I want my own child to love to bits, focus on, spend time with, etc .  I'd love a few signs of encouragement.  I really need them right now.
