First post placement visit

Yesterday we had our first post placement visit with our social worker. It doesn't seem possible that it is time for this already. We have to have these visits at 3, 6, and 12 months home. The reports are due to our agency at 2 months home b/c the reports need to get to Ethiopia by 3 months home. So, we have been home almost 7 weeks and are doing our 3 month visit. Another interesting governmental thing. These first 3 visits are done by our social worker from Aberdeen. Then our family has to do yearly post-placement reports until he is 18 years old. I understand them wanting to know that he is doing well, etc.., but honestly I'd like to know who sees these reports for all of these kids until they are 18 years old. So thankful God blessed us with Catholic Family Services in Aberdeen that is willing to work with AGCI and our family. Our social worker is great. It is nice to be able to feel so comfortable with a social worker as I know some people get so stressed when they come.
