I love your blog. It's wonderful and your family is beautiful. Wow, your daughter is reading???? That is absolutely awesome. Thanks for sharing the details of your journey. Congrats on getting so far. We have our homestudy visit on Saturday (October 6). We should be submitting our dossier in mid October. I want to do it now. :-) On one hand, things seem to go so fast, then on the other, it takes forever.
Congratulations!
