All went well this evening. She gave us lots of good information as well. That's one of the things we really appreciate this time around. Dillon is all about educating parents in advance so they go into the process with their eyes open to what might happen down the road. We have had to take, both of us, a six-hour pre-adoption online workshop that discussed adoption in general, and Honduras adoptions in particular. Very informative. Plus we have other courses that we are required to take and books to read too. Not that we had complaints with Mario's and Erik's adoptions with our other agency. But we prefer the approach that Dillon has, and wish that we had some of this information a few years ago.
Next step: our social worker writes up her report, we review it, and it is finalized.

Home Study underway
We met with our social worker this evening for the first of two meetings. Really cool lady -- Mario and Erik started playing with her right away and putting on shows for her! She's the mother of three boys, so she got them. She talked to Jerry and I both for a while, then I put the boys to bed, and she continued the discussion with Jerry.
She'll meet with us again in a couple weeks for a longer talk with me. Probably the boys will want to dominate the discussion. Again!
