Santiago asked. “Hi, this is Mrs. Rodriguez. My family and I met you yesterday. We have decided that we would like to adopt Adriana. How do we go about doing this?” The two women talked about this for about 30 minutes. Mrs. Rodriguez thanks Mrs. Santiago and hangs up the phone. Mrs. Rodriguez goes and tells her husband what they need to do in order to adopt Adriana. She tells Mr. Rodriguez, “Mrs. Santiago is sending over the first set of paperwork that we need to fill out to start the adoption process. When we are done with them, we have to go bring them to her and have an interview with her. Oh, and we also have to spend more time with Adriana so that she is comfortable with us.” “Ok good to know. Anything else that we have to do?” Mr. Rodriguez asks. Mrs. Rodriguez says, “We have to get background checks on both of us and the children so that the state knows that Adriana will be safe with us and that we don’t have criminal backgrounds.” The next day, the family goes back to York Lighthouse. The children go and talk to Adriana while the parents went to talk with Mrs. Santiago in her office. She interviewed both of the parents about their house, the other two children, and many other
