Embassy!!!!

We are bringing our baby girl home!!!! Wow I cannot even begin to put my emotions into words. Tomorrow will be 7 weeks since we said good bye, boy has it been a tough time. We have missed her more then word can say. Her smile, how she wrinkles her nose, her sweet snuggles just to name a few. Thank you so much to everyone who has prayed on our behalf, God has continually showed us that this is HIS plan and we need to trust Him to finish what He started. He is so good to have chosen us to be a part of this precious little girls life, I cannot wait to see all the God has in store for her life. We would love for anyone who would like to welcome us home and meet our sweet girl to email me and we will get you the flight information, this will be such a sweet time, and we want to share it with our family and friends.

Embassy

We heard on Friday the 15 that the embassy had requested 1 extra document regarding our case. Our agency was wonderful and took care of everything and got it back to them right away, the embassy said the info was sufficient and they would be processing our case very soon. So now we wait, we are praying to hear any day now that we have been cleared to travel to bring our precious girl home for good. From what we know of embassy dates it looks like ours could possibly be on Monday the 25, so we have plane tickets on hold for leaving Ft Wayne on Friday the 22, and returning on Friday the 29, Lord willing of course. Please continue to pray, that the embassy will sign off on our case and that all the details for travel will fall into place. We are still seeking the Lord to provide the last $10,000. This has been an amazing journey and I am so thankful to the Lord for the things He HAS and IS teaching us through this entire process. We can truly look back and see the Lords hand every step of the way.
