We got some good news this week. Sounds like MOWA (The Ministry of Womens Affairs) in Ethiopia is back to processing up to 20 cases a day- which is great news for us on our wait time. This news comes at a good time, since now is the time we have to put down some serious money and we were starting to get hesitant about going forward. We decided to go for it, trusting that this is how it's meant to work out, and that we have a little person waiting for us who is predestined to be in our family.
Now that our home study has been finalized, we're able to apply for adoption loans and scholarships. Cross your fingers that we'll be able to find the money that it takes to complete this process. Lucas's knee surgery has put a slight crunch on the money we had set aside for adoption... and we've yet to see the entire bill or how much our insurance will cover. But again, we're trusting that this is the way it's all supposed to go in the grand scheme of life, and we aren't bothered in the slightest!
This week we submitted our home study, birth and marriage certificates to US Immigration Services. Once this is approved, it will allow us bring our baby home as a US Citizen.
