Holy Buckets!



Are you sitting down? I just have to share my good news with you! TODAY we received our NVC letters!! Wooo hoooo!! That means (I think) that our I800 approval has been forwarded to the US consulate in GZ as of April 7th!! I was told that we may not get this letter for 2-4 weeks! We got it in one week! I know, I know, we will probably slow down in some other area but for now I'm doing the happy dance!

I have no idea what article 5 is but I think that is next! Is there anyone out there that can tell me? Then it's our TA!! Anyone want to venture a guess on how long it will take from NVC letter to TA?

Oh my, oh my am I excited!! Oh my, oh my do I have a lot to do!! I still have time! It's not like I'm leaving on Wednesday- right Mandi!!

Yesterday we did the necessary paperwork and pics for Sarah and Anna's passports. They should be here by the end of this month!!

Things are moving along sweet girls! You will be home soon! Their birthdays are in July! It looks like we will be celebrating it with them! We are thinking of bikes and scooters!

I wonder how this will be different from Sarah's adoption. She came from an orphanage, she was stubborn but couldn't resist the love of a forever family. Emma and Ellie are coming from a foster home. It will be different for them- it will be very sad for them to leave their dear foster Mom and Dad that took care of them for 3 years. I am sure they will be grieving heavily. Because of their experiences they should have a better understanding of what it means to be in a family. We will see! So excited to see the story unfold! Such a blessing to be bringing them home! Thank you Jesus!

Sweet girls, your Momma and Babba pray for you everyday!
