Sweet 16

It's 16 months today....nothing really new to report except that my adoption documents are expiring early next month, and I have to get an updated homestudy. No problem. This involves having my social worker do another home visit, updated medical report, updated local police report and recontacting my references. Mind you, none of this information goes to China. It all stays here in Ontario, where presumably in 2 years, when the new documents expire, I'll get to do it all again, as I won't be getting a referral for at least another 2.5 - 3 years. Can we all say 'CASH GRAB' boys and girls???
Nope, not bitter.

16 is better then 12...right???

I think that renewing is better than letting things expire and then renewing closer to referral...I've read about some people doing that, and it sounds scary to me!

Hang in there!

16 months closer. It's better to be renewing than applying for original approval right now. That's what I keep telling myself as I'm going through the same process you are. Hopefully for the last time but not convinced quite yet. Hopefully something wonderful will happen and you won't need to renew either!
