As my hubby always asks me in situations like this, “Do you want the good news first, or the bad news?”
I always tell him to just give me the bad news first so that I can get it out of the way.
So, here goes…bad news first.
Our dossier is in our girls country and is in the process of being translated. Great news! But…it seems that there are a few ‘problems’ with it. There is one document in particular where the wording is not to their liking. Actually, it’s just one sentence that is apparently wrong. There is ONE teeny, tiny little word that should not be there. Oh man. They are going to go ahead and submit our dossier this coming Thursday in the hope that it will pass, and that it will make it through their system. If not, well, I don’t even want to think about that. It could mean horrible delays…once again.
I am so thankful for the many people who are working so hard to help us get this sorted out, and our dossier approved.
And so I’m asking for your prayers, friends.
Enough already of all the obstacles! This far and no further…in the name of Jesus.
PLEASE pray with us that our dossier gets approved this Thursday. Please trust with us that the angels would surround those documents and that it would literally move through the process without a hitch-as ONLY God can do it.
Okay. Now for some absolutely FABULOUS news.
The Lord Almighty knows the desire of my heart-and He has answered. It seems that our travel plans to pick up the girls have changed drastically in the last 48 hours. We have just found out that Anthony DOES NOT have to be there to go through the whole court process with me. That means that I will travel alone, do the in-country process, and then he will come over just to…
No matter where we adopt from-adoption is NOT for the faint of heart. But oh the blessing…it far outweighs any challenge we encounter on the journey. That I know for sure.
I’ll be praying for Thursday!!
Absolutely thrilled that Anthony can fly home with you!! Goosebumps happy!!
I will definitely pray that you dossier will be accepted and things will continue to move forward so you can get your girls home as soon as possible!!
God Bless!!
WHOO HOO! So glad he gets to fly home with you!!!
As for that teeny tiny word…well, I’m honestly and earnestly praying that God removes that word when the dossier appears before their eyes. Water into wine? Parting seas? I KNOW God can white out a word! Standing with you in prayer!!!
Praise God for good news. I’m hopeful that your dossier paperwork drama is nearly over. Enough already! It’s time to bring home those girls!!
Praying the dossier is approved Thursday!
Praying for Thursday! And rejoicing that you do not have to travel home alone!
Hugs….

Perhaps we should all include a case of vodka when we send our dossier’s? hmmm…
OK, seriously though, I am confident that God is going to blind their eyes to the “incorrect” wording and that you’ll be receiving your travel date very soon!!! You are highly represented before His Throne my friend!!!
