[QUOTE="Just keep swimming, post: 82606, member: 211"] Ditto what Linda said. Our SW when we adopted easy child 3 said that our house was "kid friendly and clean". I had cleaned the bathrooms, have to...Aly has atrocious bathroom manners. I vacuumed the morning of but by the time SW got there, there was already stuff on the floor. She did not go into closets, mainly checked to see if all our toxics where locked up or put up high enough that easy child 3 couldn't reach them, made sure her room had a bed, enough room to move around in, etc. SW only peeked into the other rooms. Mainly just talked to us, the entire family individually and together about adding another child to our home. Was quite the crack up when she asked Aly, Aly was like "What? Ya mean she isn't already ours?" LOL!! easy child 3 had been with us 2 years already through foster care! LOL!! Anyways, relax, just do a "company's coming" cleaning, and be yourselves for the "talk" part of the visit. You will do fine! They might not even do as much since they are husband's kiddos. Good luck and let us know how it goes!! Hugs, Vickie [/QUOTE]
