Homestudy approval

We finally got word that we are going to be approved for our home study. We have to have one final meeting next Thursday to come up with a plan for Fisher when he comes home such as what we will do for attachment, therapy, etc. to help with his loss and grief as he is 5 years old. Our agency has come up with a new policy for adopting older child from Ethiopia so that the transition is smoother for all. We were a little nervous for a bit that it cause us a problem with approval but thank goodness it only slowed us down!

So happy for your Jill!

Can you share more on this older child policy? (you can email me or post on IAN yahoo group if it's easier) We are also potentially bringing home an older child and haven't heard anything about a special policy...

Thanks!
