We all had thought we would be live or “active” by now.. By this, I mean- in adoption terms: all of paperwork would be neatly filed away, home study turned in and the profile on us would be sent off to birth mothers to see if they would like to choose us to raise her child. We did our part. However, once all of the papers were received in the adoption agency in Missouri, some pieces from my envelope and a some pieces from the Iowa Adoption Investigator’s envelope were missing.
I can not see how this happened and after talking to the social worker who sent his stuff to the agency, he asked me to double check because he has been doing this for years and does not miss a beat. I have been trying to contact the agency and can not get the woman or her assistant who is managing our case to call us back. It has been a long week of NO movement whatsoever. We have not sent them any money yet, so I am wondering if they just do not want our business. Maybe we should take our home study and go somewhere else.
Yes, this is discouraging.. I am sure it will be worse when we are “active” and waiting.
