First post adoption report

We met with our social worker to complete our first post adoption report.  She asked general questions you would expect like what activities do you do with your child, does he have a doctor, what do they say about him, etc.

We were also asked about food he eats, his language skills which we provided some specifics on.  We talked about his eating on the go and his all day snacking ritual.  The number of words he says and how some words mean a few things.  For example, Apple and open both sound like he is saying apple.  He can't say the letter c and he try's to sing the alphabet especially loving the l m n o p part.  Overall, it was not a big deal.

We asked about the Russian program and she said its been on hold and not sure when or if coming back.  She had another family she was meeting with who were still waiting for Russia.  I asked her what's out there and she mentioned the US and South Africa as options.  It's unfortunate it has to be this way.  I think countries come and go and every year or two there is a new hot spot.  For many years it was china, then Russia and now who knows.
