Happy September- wow, am I excited for this month to get here! August served us well and God has blessed us so much in these past few weeks. We suprisingly passed court, have received the updated birth certificate and are now waiting to be submitted to the embassy. The optimist in me wants to think there is a little bit of a possibility that we must might be seeing our son again by the end of 'this' month. The realist is still saying 'next' month- October. Either way, we're getting closer!!! This week part of the reality of it all started sinking in when a bloggin' friend of mine brought her son home. We've watched their names slowly crawl up the list just a few steps ahead of us. This past week- they graduated from the 'waiting list'. Instead 'adopting' they've 'adopted. The pictures are precious of their little brown eyed boy home together as a family. Ohhh, we can't wait to be there too!
We're currently waiting on our I-600 to arrive in Ethiopia. Yes, we followed the directions and sent it in a long time ago, But, through a weird chain of events (otherwise known as God's timing)...its still on its way to Ethiopia. Please pray with us that it arrives tonight, which is their Friday, so that our paperwork will be ready for Embassy on Tuesday.
If and when that all falls into place...we'll officially be in the 'waiting for travel clearance'. At that point either our process of getting Kaleb will go very quick or very slow. How's that for an agenda! God knows if we have just weeks left in our wait or if its another month or so. Either way, whether it is 'this' or 'next' or whenever God has it planned.... we're constantly getting much closer to that big party at the airport celebrating Kaleb's arrival! Start clearing the calendars folks....this could get interesting : )
