Home Visit & Training

We are awaiting Jon's interview with our social worker next Friday morning and the 2nd of 3 home visits.  We are excited to continue our home visits and hopefully, we will be able to complete our training classes by the end of May if not before.  We also have to do an additional 8 hrs of learning about different social issues, how to handle diffferent situations, etc & write a brief 2-3 sentence paragraph about what we learned that we didn't already know.  We can do this by reading, watching videos, volunteering, etc.  We did receive a recommendation from our worker to do 4 hours of video or reading, but use the other 4 hours to learn about the potential childs issues and understand how to work with them, which I feel is a great idea!

We are happy to know that when we cleaned our house and showed it to our social worker, she was happy with it.  We do need to put some things out of a childs reach and purchase a couple more door locks, but aside from that, our house is looking good.  Oh, and with this new law in Wisconsin, about the carbon monixide detector, we are unsure if we need one for the upstairs & downstairs, but we will find out soon enough and get a 2nd one if we need to.
