Signing on the dotted line....

   Things have changed so much and then again they haven't. We have been getting everything lined up to signed the adoption paperwork for the girls. The documents we signed previously were just for foster & these will state our intent to adopt with the court. There are a few things we still have to do before we can sign the adoption placement paperwork. One of the things we have to do is take the girls in for their psychological evaluations. We have those scheduled for next week. We also still need to read the girls' file & negotiate subsidy. Our case worker is confident we will get it all done in the next 2 weeks so we are set to sign the paperwork on October 31st. They usually try to change the placement types on the last day of the month for accounting purposes. This way starting November 1st we would get adoption subsidy instead of foster stipend etc. As soon as we sign the paperwork our attorney will file the documents to finalize with the court. He said we should finalize at the December 18th court date already set up for adoptions. October 31st was pretty much the last date to sign our paperwork & still be able to finalize this year! We are so excited to introduce our girls to the world and get on with living happily ever after with our two little princesses.
