We have referrals!

For 2 Ethiopian beauties. One girl, one boy. Surprise! : )
Will complete our official acceptance paperwork and send it off in the next day or two.
One big step forward for Deutschkind.

This is awesome! :) Now I'm praying that you'll travel before Christmas so you can get your newest cuties home. :)

So what happens now? Waiting for a court date? Once they re-open, should that happen quickly? Think you'll travel before the end of the year? Oh, if only we could travel together!! Can't wait to meet your little sweeties and hug on them (think I'd overwhelm them??). :)

We do have a couple forms to prepare and have notarized, 2 more immigration forms for each child, verification of employment, w-2s, 1040s, acceptance letter, etc, to accept the referrals. Then, yep, court date is next. Are they back logged because of the closure? I don't know. I'm guessing our court date won't be until the beginning of next year, but we don't know yet....getting much closer though!!

Great news Tisha and I apologize for being behind on following your blog. The day in the park when you told me about Flint, before he had this name, I really knew this was going to work out for you. After knowing you and your family for all this time, I could see no reason why they would deny you the chance to make him part of your family. I can't wait to meet him and Meadow.
