The paperchase has began :O)))

Ellie and friends
With the new FBI prints beginning processed and soon to arrive back this week we go to the next step.  
All the new documents have been printed up and waiting for signatures and notary seals.  Next updated medicals for both Gary and I, 4 new marriage licenses/with apostles and our home ownership paperwork.
One document at a time and we will soon be able to send off our remaining documents for our Dossier.   This is our little fancy pants in the middle. I can not wait to travel this winter to meet her and her brother Clyde.  The kids at home are very excited that this next year both children will be home shortly after Christmas.  Counting the months till we are able to travel to meet the both of them.   During this time we are working on saving the funds for our travel and team fees.  Believe or not I have already started a check list on what we will need to bring with us.  Traveling in the winter many heavier luggage and extra luggage.. Each extra piece will add up quickly.  Our FSP on RR is still standing the same and we are in great need of the funds to travel and pay both children's facilitator fees.  Praying for a miracle in funds to help us over this mountain of worries.  My worries I hand over to my Lord to guide us through our adoption of these little ones....

Full of emotions today

I am get back to blogging our journey this week and share some photos and our journey. Today I found myself missing our new little ones.  I wonder if they know we are coming back for the both of them.  Many tears as we walked out the door and said our goodbyes. This adoption has been a hard one for many reasons.  Updating documents and not knowing which child we were meant to adopt.  Honestly I just did not know what to expect once we were there. I knew this time deep inside I feel nervous and also excited.  With prior adoptions things felt so much differently than this one.  Maybe because this journey has been also a year in waiting. When we first met Barbara in hopped a little girl full of life and smiles.  As I watched her I noticed she was as nervous as I was.  But shortly we got to know one another.  I knew then inside as she sat across from us that this was our child, our daughter.. I felt inside love for a child I only met for...

USCIS approval and updates

Currently we are gathering up our documents once again times two. So two sets of everything means double the funds again.  Heart breaking to start from the beginning with documents.  But we are steps ahead with our Home study and our USCIS approval.  The USCIS approval is the most important document needed in our Dossier. This has been a very difficult week, yet another little girl passes away yesterday.  My heart cries out again for the parents and family.  After the first little girl and now another it breaks one's heart.  On the 25th of April it will be now 5 years since the death of our daughter Gennie~beane.  I wished I could hold her once again in my arms.  I tell all the children about Gennie and how precious she was.  Katya ask me each night about Gennie and if she is there still in Heaven.  Hard to explain to a child that children do die with out scaring them.  Jake Gennie's biological brother also has Cystic Fibrosis...

Medicals

Medical exam complete but we have to update all blood work, TB test also needs to be updated and also a letter from the American Embassy needs updating.  All documents have been cleared for approval and these last documents will allow our Dossier to be submitted in August.  Normally it takes 2 months for a travel date.  Our plans will be to travel to review Ellie's file and meet with her.  Secure her and file for a court hearing.  We will leave country and return for court, during Court hearing  we will also be allowed to view Clyde's records and file for his Court Date.  Praying we are able to waive the 30 days of waiting for Ellie if not when we return for Clyde's Court Hearing pickup Ellie and apply for Ellie's passport.. During Clyde's court hearing we will apply for the 30 days to be waived. If not we will have to make four trips which we had not planned. This means additional funds for Ellie's and Clyde's adoption  SO far we have not sold ...
