Back from the Remote Area

Our agency contacted us today and let us know that they have the death certificate from the remote area of the country where they had to go to get it. They will be able to take it to the Embassy on Monday (the Embassy doesn't accept anything on Fridays). We are hopeful that the Embassy will accept this and that everything will be good to go for Leah. The Embassy said that we could pick a time Monday through Thursday to come and get Rachel. We are going to wait until Monday to see if Leah's paperwork is good and then we will ask for a date to either get Rachel or to get both of them. We had thought they only had two dates a month for Embassy dates but apparently that is not the case. This is all very encouraging to me because we finally seem to be moving forward. We could possibly have both of them home by the end of February. Please keep praying. Everyone's prayers are truly making a difference.

I took my troubles to the Lord; I cried out to him, and he answered my prayer.
~ Psalm 120:1

We will be in ET from Feb 24 - March 7. Let me know if you need someone to escort your girls back to the US. We would be more than willing to help.

Paige,
Thank you for the offer! That is very generous of you!! We asked if we could do that and Radu will only allow himself and members of his board to escort children home. I wish we could take you up on that. We may end up over there at the same time as you. I would love to meet you.
