Seriously, how much longer??

It's been awhile since I've had anything to share. Sadly, I still have nothing to share other than some frustration I'm feeling about this process. It seems like it will never end!

Our foster license needs to be renewed this summer, and we were hoping that Alex's adoption would finalize before we needed to submit everything. I mean, I'm willing to do the work, but if we don't need to then why go through it? It sounded like we would not need to send in the paperwork (I'll share a list later, if you're interested), and so I filed the form away and didn't think about it again (which is why I'll have to share the list later; out of sight, out of mind).

Well, yesterday I received an e-mail that stated that the agency in AZ "hoped to finalize within the next six months." Seriously!? What could possibly be taking so long? Our adoption home study was completed and sent off to Arizona several weeks ago. I know they received it. I realize there are steps in this process, but it seems like we should just be filing paperwork to go to court at this point.

Our worker here in Clark County is wonderful and trying to get information to us as fast as she can get it, but when you are working between states, everything just takes longer.

For now, I'll just sit here and allow myself to feel frustrated for the next three minutes, and then I'll get up and start preparing our license renewal paperwork. One day we'll be done...
