Hello World!!


Thought I’d have a go at this blogging stuff and see how it goes :-)

We are applying to adopt from China, and have been ‘in the process’ since January 2006, and still aren’t even at the starting line! We’ve completed our homestudy, passed Approval Panel, and our papers are at the DfES waiting to be checked. China brought in new rules, that came into affect yesterday, and although we, our social worker, our Local Authority and Approval Panel think we are ok with the new rules, we now have to wait and see if DfES agree!! Nerve wracking!!! Keep your fingers crossed
