Counting down the days

With court completed and days of waiting are over we raised enough funds to purchase our tickets to travel.
Daily packing our luggage a little at a time. This trip will be roughly 2 to 3 weeks.

With both children born in different areas if the country means extra travel involved and extra funds needed.

One great thing us the weather is warmer so no heavy coats to worry with or winter clothing.

Excited knowing we will see our children again. And this trip they will be traveling home. Their rooms are being finished up. New bedding, pillows and painting the walls prior to leaving.

The pass couple of months we have been working on making one of bathrooms handicap abscessable. This will make it easier for Sophia to shower.

Greysin loves legos so trying find him a few sets to start up with. Sophia loves baby dolls and girly things. Sophia is going love havin sisters to play with. Greyson will have plenty of nephews his age to built things with.

Trying to pack light, which is not working to well. We will be staying at a hotel so trying to limit having to things laundered. So I've packed one week per person, extra socks and undies. Packing ziplock bags so we can purchase bake goods to snack on in evenings. Bread and bake good are amazing.. I will share more photos this trip..

Again please pray and share our children FSP on Reece's Rainbow 🌈

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 ...
