Getting it Together...

Oi Kids,

Great news! Mommy's TB free! LOL-- I went to the doctor yesterday to begin all the testing I need to have done to make sure I'm healthy enough to open my home to you and guess what? Thumbs up bebes!~ :))And what's great is that my doctor wears two hats, he's a general practicioner and a pediatrician! Hopefully we won't be needing him so much because you'll take your vitamins, your'll eat healthy and you'll be healthy, no doubt!

I'm also drving around with a trunk full of things for the fundraiser. I have to empty it out and go collect more stuff down in Broad Channel by my friend Michele's house. She used to be my neighbor, we met when we were 7 years old and while we've been through some rough patches we've remained friends all these years.

I registered for the Hague Training and that will start next week. It's a 10 hour course called Because They Waited and it will train me on whatever situation may occur when you come home. I've been doing my own reading and research lately in hopes to make the transition super easy for you. I know it will be hard. Always remember that actions speak louder than words and soon enough you'll know that when you come home to me you will have a forever mother, no matter what I will never ever leave you, never put you in harms way and always love you.

Once the home study is in full swing I will hit the ground running, authenticating all my documents and getting everything prepared to send my dossier to the agency. I have a feeling this will go fast; all the agencies are right in my backyard from the Queens County Clerks Office, to the Secretary of State's Office to the Brazilian Consulate. I hope to have the dossier completed by mid-summer but I'n not to sure how long the I600A form will take to be processed. It's all in God's hands, exactly where it should be!

Muito Amor,
Mommy
