Checking things off the list.

It feels SO great to be able to check things off of this massive list of things we have to prepare to send to Haiti. Earlier this week we did our home study visit. Now we just wait for our social worker to write up the report. Today we got our finger prints done and we met with our psychologist to get a psych evaluation done. Well, not "our" psychologist. We didn't know him before today. But he was a lovely man I and would highly recommend him to anyone who needs a psychologist. Tomorrow we (Avery included) have to get a complete physical. Who knows, we may even drop by the police department to get our letter stating that we don't have a criminal record. Probably after we drop by the bank to get a letter stating we do, in fact, have legit bank accounts with money (not much though, HA!) in it.

It is amazing to me all of the things one has to do to adopt a child. Yet, there are no requirements for people to have their own kid. Pretty sure if we enforced some of these requirements on any person that wants to procreate, we would have a lot less crazies running around the world. I mean, you have to have a license to drive a car, why can't you make people pass a parenting test to have a kid?? I'm sure that infringes on somebody's rights. And we wouldn't want to do that.
