Hi everyone!!
I know it's been a lot time since we have written an update but the reason being nothing in our Ethiopian adoption has changed. We are currently in the waiting process of our adoption where we sit back, wait and pray. In a way we are like a pregnant couple anxiously awaiting the arrival of their little one. The only difference between us and pregnancy is that our time frame is unknown and unpredictable. When we first started our adoption process the wait time was "estimated" to be between 18-24 months once our dossier was sent to Ethiopia. We began our paper chase in April 2013 and submitted our dossier to Ethiopia October 18, 2013. Over the course of the past year, AWAA (our adoption agency) has expanded the wait time from 18 months to now some where between 36-42 months. Yikes a year and a half wait has turned to 3 to 3 1/2 year wait.
I know that time frame seems a bit unusual given the large amount of orphans in Africa and as much as I want to see, meet and bring home our little princess - we know Gods timing is perfect. I truly believe we are finally in a place where We have accepted and are at peace with this reality. We know that we are following the path predestined for us and we will wait patiently, pray unceasingly and hold on to the hope that God will one day make us a family united.
As always we appreciate and are grateful for your support and prayers and will continue to keep you updated as time goes on.
Have a wonderful day and God bless!!
