Going on 10...



When I looked at the calendar at the beginning of May I had a "moment" when I figured out that we have officially been waiting for our referral going on 10 months now. We're overdue!!!

The good news is things continue to move forward for other waiting families on the adoption front...it's just been going a lot slower than before. I believe there were 4 little ones referred to famiies last month. Yeah!!! The bad news is the government in Ethiopia has had to make some changes in regards to court processes with 4 different orphanages. One of those four orphanages is one that our agency works with. We were informed that no referrals will be given out nor will any court hearings take place on current cases from these orphanages. We're not sure what all this means, but are praying that things get resolved quickly...especially for the families it directly affects.

Fortunately, there are several other orphanages that our agency works with, so we are hoping...praying....pleading that we get our call soon! Some friends of ours that received their referral back in February have their court date tomorrow. We're wishing you all the best and God's favor guys!!! Can't wait!!

Until soon...
