Home Study Visit #2

An adoptive homestudy for China requires four visits with your social worker (instead of the usual two visits required for most other countries). We had our second visit today, and things are continuing to go well. Since our social worker lives in Glendale, we met kind of in the middle at Sweet Tomatoes in Scottsdale. Now, if you've ever been to a Sweet Tomatoes restaurant, you know that the atmosphere inside can be kind of frenetic. Imagine trying to gracefully eat cucumbers sliced a wee bit too large to fit into your mouth while avoiding dripping extra dressing into your lap and attempting to answer questions over the surrounding din about what it means to be a mother all at the same time. Could there be better preparation for parenthood?
