Baby steps

We welcome all steps that progress us forward...even baby steps. We have doctor's apppointments made. Our first Home Study office visit is scheduled. 4 out of 6 reference letters have been mailed to Catholic Family Services. Now, we wait for our dossier paperwork to come in the mail hopefully at the beginning of the week.
