Another education meeting 8/14

Last night we went to the monthly CHI Parent Education meeting. We met a couple new Vietnamese adopting families and we brought Shawn with us this time. He had a great time (after the initial crying because he was unfamiliar with the person in charge and the other kids) and the lady said he was wonderful and a great helper and very smart. (Sorry I had to add the compliment, what parent can resist?) The topic of the evening was on Life Books, which is something we were familiar with through the fostering system. They are a good idea and we will probably make one for our little guy after he comes home.
The cool thing was that 2 of the families we met last month had referrals for children. Both their kids were off the waiting list. We will probably look there after we finish the homestudy too to see if we fall in love with any of the children.
