We have finished our home study visits--yay! We have also completed all of our education and it has been approved by AGCI--double yay! Dossier paperwork is finished---triple yay! Now we have to wait for our social worker to finish the home study, get it reviewed by the director of Adoption Assitance, get it reviewed by AGCI, and then make revisions. Then we will receive the official notarized copy and send it, along with the rest of our dossier, to AGCI for review. If that is approved, we will get our first official number on the waitlist! Josh is trying to prepare me that this could be up to a month away, but I am hoping and praying for 2 weeks! If you think of it, send up a prayer for little to no revisions necessary and quick turnaround between people. Thank you!
And just because people (ahem...relatives!) will be disappointed if this post includes only one picture...
By the way, the one of her eating just makes me tear up because she is such a big girl now! She's been asking to sit in the "big girl chair" so we got her a booster seat..she loves eating at the table with us now. I just can't believe how fast she is growing up!

Life song for orphans? My friends adopting from Ethiopia just got a matching grant of $4000 dollar for dollar for any money donated to them. Might be worth looking into!!
It is only good after your homestudy, which if I am following correctly, you are there.
