We had our first in-home social work visit. We were worried about cleaning the house, looking presentable, etc. But, we certainly didn't need to worry ourselves as much as we thought. Our social worker visited with the children. She asked them why they thought she was there. Kaylee and Jacob understand and told her that we're adopting another child. Owen said we're going to get a boy or a girl who is 1 or 2, and they're going to live with us forever. And Mia doesn't quite understand what's happening. After she talked with the kids, she spend about an hour with us disucussing everything from why we made this decision, the car accident we had in 1993, our medical history and preparing our house for the next visit. Everything went very smooth, and we hope to have our second visit at the beginning of July. Will keep you posted. :)
