Homestudy

Yesterday I received an email stating that our homestudy was signed and in the mail!

I was excited to see a large envelope in the mail today! My excitement quickly diminished as a read a mistake that I knew would not be acceptable to send on to immigration. Another mistake, another delay! I teeter between feelings of trust that God makes no mistakes and has the timing of this under control; and feelings of anger and disappointment that others just don't "get it" that there is a little girl on the other side of the world waiting for us to come get her!

The possibility for our dossier to be in Ukraine by the end of January does not look like a reality now! We are told that immigration alone takes 4-6 weeks!

Our prayer is that our dossier makes it to Ukraine before their quota is filled. (Last year they accepted around 1,400 dossiers, and was full shortly after the first of the year). We just don't want to have to wait another year!

On an encouraging note, we have been so blessed by people donating to our adoption by donating items that could be sold. We just got news this week about someone donating more furniture! In the next post, I will list all of the items that we still have for sale!

We are grateful to so many who have been faithfully praying for us through this process.
