We made it home! We left the beach at 10 am and arrived home at 9 pm....all the kiddos did great. Our first successful road trip as a family of 5! Back to reality...laundry & cleaning....our first post-placement homestudy visit is Monday!
On the adoption front, please keep all of those stuck in "the process" in your thoughts & prayers. A good forum buddy of mine has been on the waiting list for a little girl for 1 year now with our agency. I am pulling for her & others who have waited so long. Two families were issued DNA Requests a couple of weeks ago from the USCIS...these families have already waited over 7 months since their referral & were hoping for travel news, not a DNA Process.....Also, as of now, it still looks like Vietnam will close to U.S. adoptions as of September 1st. There are still talks going on between the U.S. & Vietnamese governments as well as committees for the rights of the children in the orphanage system. It's just a mess....ethical procedures must be in place to protect all involved in the adoption triad...they just must. The process that the "political powers that be" are chosing to take...well, that is leaving little to be desired in my opinion.
