Hooray, hooray, hooray!

May 15, 2007

Today our dossier left for Ethiopia!!!!!!!!!! That’s big news in the adoption world. After it arrives in Ethiopia, it gets translated, approved by the Ethiopian government, and then our case goes to court. All this takes a month or two. Once we make it through court, the girls are ours by Ethiopian law. Then it is usually only another 4-6 weeks till travel! We are so thrilled to have made it one step close to getting them home! Hooray!

    Merrily is going over on the 28th with their welcome bags. They already know they have a family, but I’m not sure how much Gail has told them about us specifically.
