A Minor Setback

Our adoption agency (Heartsent) received a letter from the USCIS stating that our home study was lacking information about how we, the adoptive parents, would be able to handle a special needs child (all children who have lived in an orphanage setting are considered special needs) and it lacked specifics about where the child will be living (essentially what their room is like). So I supplied the information to the lady who wrote our home study and she is updating it with the requested information. I had to laugh at the part about us not having provided information on how we are able to support a special needs child. After all… as an elementary school counselor I’ve had just a little training in that area 🙂
