HomeStudy #2

We completed our second HomeStudy visit today. This was the final meeting with the social worker until after our child comes home, when a series of follow-up reports need to be completed and sent to Russia.

Now we have to wait for her report to be completed and submitted to our agency...

Visit with Psychologist

Today we met with a psychologist for a brief interview and then we both had to take a psychological examination.

The psychological examination is know as the Minnesota Mulitphasic Personality Inventory Test (MMPI-2). It is a 567 question true/false test (that is taken with a #2 pencil). We, however, only needed to complete 408 questions - lucky us!

Overall the appointment went well, but it was a very "interesting" experience.
