Home sweet Home

I know, I know. I am one of the worst bloggers in the history of blogging. I knew I would be.  Let's see if I can get you caught up on the last four months in a paragraph... or two. The paper train has continued to pull forward, slowly but surely. It has taken longer than we have wanted because we have been traveling back and forth between California and Colorado. Earlier this month, however, Brandon's company moved us back home and we are thrilled! We feel like we can now finalize our dossier and prepare to bring a new child into our home. I am probably still a little bit early, but I have been "nesting." The excitement is growing as the light at the end of tunnel is becoming clearer.
We have assembled our dossier lacking only one document, which will hopefully be in the mail this week! We will then be able to submit our dossier to Ethiopia!!! This week, the Lord graciously reminded us of the fact that He is in complete control and that He sees even the small details. We had a paperwork snafu that could have delayed our progress by a couple weeks or possibly even a couple of months! He was ten steps ahead of us the whole time and, in spite of the snafu, we have been approved by USCIS. That  means that we can legally bring our child home to the United States. Obviously very important!
We appreciate everyone's continued support and excitement. We look forward to updating everyone soon on the submission of our dossier!!!
