It's been a while since my last post and while I wish I could report that our Home Study is done, it's well, not. There was a breakdown in communication with our case worker, her supervisor and us about what to do with all of our paperwork, but we finally got it sorted and sent off. It took 7 stamps to mail all the documents! Seven. Stamps. I even made Mama S take a picture of the envelope! It seems so crazy that it's moved this slowly, but at least it's moving.
The good news though is that we have heard from our case worker about our paperwork, as well as about a change in case workers. Apparently our case worker is leaving the agency in charge of our home study on April 1st, but fortunately she is already working with her replacement on all of the cases on her load. This translates into no further delays in our Home Study. According to our current case worker, we will be called within the next week or two by our new case worker to schedule our home visit. Which means we should have it before Easter! It's exciting to finally have an estimated time frame to work with. Maybe we will actually have a placement by this summer!
