Finally a much needed update!! Sorry it has been awhile. We have spent the past months preparing documents for our Dossier. If you have gone through an adoption you know very well. If not, let me just share with you...A LOT OF PAPER WORK, Dr. appointments, finger prints, personal referral letters, passports and on and on :-) I must say, although it took some time to gather it all, it went pretty smooth. For me, it was more the anxiety of making sure everything was done right. It can be overwhelming to have a list of requirements and a stack of documents in front of you and just hope you did not miss anything. Especially anything that may take some time to get. All went well though and we only needed to fix some small things PHEW!
The Great News...We are finally a waiting family!! WhooHoo!! Our Dossier was sent to Ethiopia on December 12th. We are #45 on the list. The estimated wait time for us is 7-9 months. It sounds funny but we are so excited to be waiting "officially". It seems so far away, but in reality time goes by so quickly and CL keeps us busy so it will probably be here before we know it. We are filled with so much excitement and butterflies just thinking of the moment that we get a referral.
I will do much better in posting in our blog in the coming months. We are thrilled to share our journey with you!!
