July 31, 2007 - New Fingerprints

Well even though we have had I don't know how many sets of fingerprints for international adoption taken over the last year, it seems that none of them are useful to become a Foster Parent. Who cares if the FBI says I'm ok and even the State Police, we had to go down to DCFS today and get a new set of fingerprints taken. Luckily they were free because the State pays for them. Last time we were at DCFS to have fingerprints taken it was almost a 3 1/2 hour wait, which is something you don't want to attempt with a child under 2. This time we were in and out in 15 minutes. I was so happy to see that they have streamlined the process.
