Home Study

Yesterday Caleb and I had our home study interviews. A social worker came to our home and interviewed me then Caleb once he got home from work. She was at our house for two hours. It went really good. Some of the questions she asked really made me think. We both had to describe each of our parents with one word descriptions. We could give her multiple one word answers for each parent. I gave my answers to my parents before Caleb got home. To hear him answer and give very similar answers for his mom and dad made me realize how similar our parents really are. The social worker also asked us to each name some things that made us fall in love with our spouse and what is it that keeps us in love and loving each other. Also being asked why I want to be a mother and asking Caleb why he wants to be a father. I don't think too many people/parents have thought about why they want to be parents prior to having a family. She wanted to know what we were each like as children, what we did as families growing up and what our hobbies are as adults. We have some paperwork things that we still need to provide her before she can complete her review and send it on to the agency.
