We got Hannah and Hailee's passport applications sent in (finally) - We are still praying that they CAN come with us to bring their sister home.
Our I-800 approval came in the mail today! I was in shock because as of Friday it was still 'pending'. Praise the Lord for that surprise!
Upon receiving it I had to email a copy of it to our agency then I had to email the National Visa Center to see if they received a copy of our I-800 approval from our USCIS officer. I am praying for a quick response email from them saying they got it with the approval letter attached to it. Our agency needs that letter to continue with the adoption.
We have Meiya's room almost finished. I still need to get her bedding for her crib. We are going tonight to see if we can find something we like that is not expensive.
This picture hangs in Meiya's room. It was signed by our church family.
This is all so exciting! In just a few weeks we will have our baby girl finally in our arms! She will FINALLY be an orphan no more! I dream about that moment all the time. What will it be like when we first see her and she see's us? Will she be frightened of us? I am sure she will be, but we've been praying for God to prepare her for us since we began our journey to her. We sent her a photo album a few months ago. I pray that she has it and her foster mama shows her our pictures.
God has been so good to us during this adoption and even before. We are so thankful for everything He has done for us and for the people He has put into our lives. Please continue to pray for us that we raise the rest of the money needed to pay for our adoption and for our travel expenses. We have a new fundraiser going on now with BE A VOICE. They make and sell gorgeous jewelry and other very nice items.
