Final Home Study Visit

On Wednesday Benji and I went to meet with the owner of our new home study agency. She informed us that she was bringing Donna on as an employee of her agency so we will be able to continue to work with Donna for the home study as well as for our post placements. This is great news for us because Donna is great and we hated having to lose her. All around this home study situation did set us back a few weeks but it is working out great for us.
Then yesterday, I had to go to Athens to do my final interview with Donna. It went very well, but she makes conversation so easy. Thank you Ashley for riding with me, and making the day very eventful and less stressful.
So we are now done with everything that we can do for our homestudy. We should have the completed homestudy within one to two weeks. At that point we will be waiting on our passports to come in. It is still going to take about 3 weeks for our passports to be in. That should be plenty of time for us to finish up the dossier requirements. So it is our aim to send everything to Russia in the next 4 weeks or so. It is at the point that we have to send the paperwork off to Russia that we have to have another rather large payment. We are hoping to be approved for some grant money but we are not sure how long it takes for the grant money to come through. We trust that God has a plan set into motion for the money to be there when we go to submit our paperwork to Russia.
