Part of the wait is over!

Yesterday afternoon we finally received the information we had been waiting for for almost a month. A couple of weeks ago we received referral information (pictures and medical background) for the now 8 month old girl we are adopting but had nothing about the almost 4 yr. old girl we are adopting. That last piece of the puzzle came to us yesterday afternoon! We are so excited that we have made it to this next step. Today we will be getting our referral acceptance documents together and getting ready to send our referral payment to the agency! Once all that information is received in Ethiopia, we will then be waiting for a court date to be set. After they pass the court, we will then be given a travel date for bringing them home! We know we still have a lot of waiting to do but it seems like such a relief to put precious little faces with the names!

Thanks for your continued prayer support! We will keep you posted!

And the Wait Goes On.....

Sorry for the lack of posts but we haven't had much else to post. We received pictures and medical information for our beautiful baby girl who will be 1 in August but we have still not received pictures or medical information about our new daughter who will turn 4 in June. We also have learned that the Ethiopian government has extended timeframes between the different processes involved from this point forward so we are not sure how that will affect us. It is looking like it could be this fall rather than summer when we get our girls.

Please pray that things will start moving more quickly so that we can get our girls!
