Todd completed his individual session with Lori on Monday in her office, and this morning she came here for the home visit. All outlets covered - check. Smoke detectors tested and working - check. Drawers with latches - check. Doors with latches - check. Safety knob covers on entrance and exit doors - check. Double lock to get to the deck - check. Gates for use at stairs - check. Extra bedroom for another child - check. House ready for another child - check! Since we are already child-proofed around here because of Hayden the visit was a piece of cake. Lori walked through the house and took notes as she went. We finished the home visit without anything needing to be fixed, purchased, etc. Another step complete.
Funny little story...Hayden decided to show Lori the way through the house for the home visit and when she got to his room he said "Lori, piggy bank" and pointed to the piggy bank on his shelf. She told him that she didn't have any coins in her pockets, and I quickly told him that we'd get some coins out of Mommy's purse and put them in the bank when Lori was done seeing the house. Hayden proceeded to cry and tell Lori again that she needed some money for his bank. Lori, being the kind and cooperative person that she is, went downstairs and got money out of her purse for Hayden to put in his bank. "Thank you much" he says. Guess he's charging an admission fee to see his room these days!
