Where we are.

Well, alot of people are asking where we are in our adoption process. When I start to explain and then explain what needs to happen next I start to see a glazed look come over their eyes. I'm sure they think we're crazy to be so excited about the step we just made thinking "Man they have a loooong ways to go!" but honestly it's really not that far. I don't bore them with all the steps we had to take to actually get to where we are at this point but if they only knew they would be shouting and yelling, as well. So here it goes the run down put simply of where we are......

Recieve notarized copies of homestudy
Send in to USCIS for fingerprinting appt. then when completed receive FDL letter
Once we receive this letter we can formally send in our Dossier
When Dossier is approved and we send in our next monetary installment we officially go on the "waiting list"
Once on the "waiting list" it's completely out of our hands and we waaiiiitttttt (One may ask how long this wait is. Well, average right now is 10-12 months but God can do anything so we have no idea)

Sometimes when people ask I really wish they would follow our blog but I really can't say "Well, we document all of this, just follow our blog." For those that do follow our blog here it is and yes I will still love to talk to you in person about it all. :) Sometimes it's just easier to see it laid out then try to follow someone trying to explain it all in person.
