We have given our (private agency) licensing worker presents at Christmas. I like the family picture idea.Dianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18224986881551392108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3650441630749731563.post-20347834360676524612012-03-12T13:47:36.372-07:002012-03-12T13:47:36.372-07:00When we adopted our first two, we invited the case...When we adopted our first two, we invited the case workers & attorney to lunch with us to celebrate. Four case workers accepted the offer & we had a wonderful time. Our following two adoptions, I wrote a thank you letter to the case workers and provided a letter with a quick update & "thank you for what you do everyday" letter.Valeriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16664611543127254781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3650441630749731563.post-11695811297011885732012-03-12T09:01:52.651-07:002012-03-12T09:01:52.651-07:00we ended up not doing anything because we had a lo...we ended up not doing anything because we had a lot of turnover with my son's case and all of the workers, gal, ect we only with us for about a month or two before the finalization. <br /><br />This time around we had the same cw, gal, and attorney from day one so I think we will do something for them but I'm not sure what yet. we were thinking maybe a framed picture with a thank you note :)Maurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03926897555513324016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3650441630749731563.post-79698834942535698852012-03-12T06:48:54.596-07:002012-03-12T06:48:54.596-07:00Yay that you're getting so close!
I didn'...Yay that you're getting so close!<br /><br />I didn't do anything for the people involved in our case :( Frankly I had so much going on that I didn't think about it.<br /><br />That being said, I've been meaning to print pictures for them of our family at the adoption hearing so they can post it on their walls. I know our CASA and our own attorney have specifically asked for that, so I think that is a good idea.<br /><br />If I were to do anything, that would be it. Maybe I'd give them a small frame they could put the picture in or send them the framed picture after the adoption was finalized.<br /><br />Our CASA gave us a gift on the day of Summer's adoption - it was one of those willow tree figurine ornaments - I don't remember which one but it was to signify the adoption.Miehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16833685071916427754noreply@blogger.com
