We are officially logged into the system!! which means that we are able to receive a CFC (child for consideration) once a child becomes available. The wait time for a baby girl is approximately 120 days, according to our caseworker. So...yes, this is good news!
Chrisfeeney thinks it might be a good idea to start getting organized, i.e. prepare lists for travel and baby needs, buy furniture for the nursery, enroll Chook into an organizational skills class (ok, not really, but I'm so not organized) but seriously, it's seriously time to get serious.
My friend Susan, who is also adopting a baby girl from Vietnam, is soooo organized. Susan has a list for everything, she's the bomb!!!!
I think the first thing I need to do is make a list of all the things I need to do...that doesn't sound hard...I can do that. Ok, let's see...I think my list will look something like this:
Things to do:
- Call Susan and ask her to send me all the lists she compiled during her adoption process.
There, I feel much better now.
