Last night we attended a pre-service 1 class with about 30 other families from all over the Metroplex. It was wonderful to meet couples that are going thru this process together, we joked on the way home that over ½ of the families included at least one pastor, youth minister or theologian and the other half included a nurse or someone with medical training. We are just a teacher and a performing arts consultant (at least our children will be educated and cultured)! We received more paperwork to fill out and were encouraged to read three books (which for those of you who know us - Jack will totally enjoy - any project requires at least 3 books)!
The pool has passed inspection – at least from the pool company. The nice people a Gabe’s Pool came out and really helped me and inspected everything to ensure that it is safe. A huge thank you to Joel!
Our Family Recruitment Specialist, Kallie, sent us a zip file today of additional paperwork that will take us several days to complete, but this will help us get a jump start on our background checks which need to be completed prior to the FBI check. We also learned that we need to get a copy of our driving records to include with our marriage license, birth certificates, Jack’s divorce decree, proof of insurance and Scarlett’s vaccination records, am I forgetting anything? The Nelson binder is growing daily.
Each week we will get additional paperwork to prepare us for the home study. We still have lots to do around the house (just thankful to cross off the pool). I will post additional pictures over the weekend.
On a side note, Jack’s robotics team 888G was recognized by the RISD school board Monday night for winning the WOC Robotics Competition in October and qualifying for the World Championship in April. Congrats to Jack and his team.
