Whew, the home study is over

Well, actually the whole home study is a report our agency writes based on our home visit + background check + stuff from our references + our psych exam results... but the WORST part, the home visit is over. We cleaned our house like crazy people and were pretty darn nervous, but the visit itself really was not so bad. Basically one of the ladies from our agency, Bonnie, a nice older lady came and asked a bunch of questions about how we plan to parent and that kind of thing. We actually quite like Bonnie, so it wasn't terribly painful. And the dogs behaved, thank god.

Bonnie pretty much told us we did just fine, so now we just wait while the agency writes up their report, and we have one or two bits of paper we're still waiting on.... and then we get matched with a kid! Woohooo!!! When we get matched we'll fly down to Guatemala to meet him or her. Don't get to take him/her home on that visit though... several more months go by for that, but everything is still moving along really well.
