What's going on...

We had the first of many seminars last night. It focused on maintaining your child’s birth culture and being a multi-cultural family. We did a few exercises and talked about discrimination, stereotypes etc. We broke up into country specific groups at the end so we were able to meet others that are going through S. Korea. We met a few other couples, one whose home study was completed about 4 months before us and two others that are behind us and still waiting to get into the Korea program. I think it will help a lot having others to talk to and wait with.

Chuck got Easter baskets with the first stuffed Easter bunny and Horton, which Stella loves. I am going to find somewhere to start storing some of this stuff; there’s no more room on the dresser.

We are still waiting to hear from USCIS regarding our fingerprinting, if we were approved.

Other than that, there’s nothing new going on, but stay tuned for updates.

The seminar sounded great! So glad you got to meet some other couples! Hopefully that will make things a little easier to have someone to talk to and hear their experience too. Love ya! :)

How nice it is to have a support system while going through this process. No one understand better than the people going through the same thing! Think about you all the time, and I keep hoping this all passes quickly for you. Can't wait for you to bring that baby home! - Megs
