It pays to follow up. . .

We've done our best to be patient, but the waiting was really beginning to get to us, so Marc had a great idea. When you don't have the information you desperately need. . .pester someone until you do, right?

This afternoon Marc emailed the Light House adoption representative he and Kim have been working with to see if their information and check had been received and processed. The Light House rep responded writing that while she was looking forward to working with us, our application and CHECK had not been received at their office.

Marc wasn't panicking. . .yet. The rep asked what address we had sent our information to and come to find out we had inadvertently sent our packet to their secondary building and the mail doesn't travel between buildings often. It is being looked into and we're supposed to hear back from her tomorrow about whether or not it has been located.

This little "adventure" only solidified the things we've been hearing about how this process promises to be a roller-coaster from start to finish. . .and everywhere in-between.
