Well not much to report today as we are still just waiting. We are on day 63 of waiting for our LOA to arrive. The average wait time is about 90 days, so we are 2/3 of the way there! Once we get our LOA, then we wait again for our TA. The TA usually comes about 3 weeks after LOA. So basically you usually get on a plane about 6 weeks after you receive your LOA. I am really hoping all this happens on the "normal" schedule, but you never know. Dealing with a foreign government agency (or any govt agency for that matter) you really don't have any control over the situation. So we sit and wait and pray! We are really hoping to go the last week of October through the first week of November. So please continue to keep us in your prayers. Thank you to everyone who has been supporting us through this life changing journey.
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."- Jeremiah 29:11

praying for your daily!! Cant wait to see Shelby with her family
Hoping for things to happen quickly! I guess Ellen will be next! See you Friday - can't wait. One other HFC family with whom we travelled will be there too, with their son!
Praying for you.
The wait can be so stressful. We so try to remember that there is a reason for everything. We believe that Matthew isn't yet ready for us to be there, that maybe he needs this time to come to terms with being adopted and having a family.
As excited as we are to go get Matthew we know that one of the happiest days of our lives will be one of the saddest for him. That allows us to understand the need for the wait!
We are on day 60 and realize that we got here in just a BLINK! Our prayers continue to be with all of you!
