Officially Certified!
March 21, 2008
Just when I was beginning to get a little impatient…we are certified by the AZ courts to adopt! Yeah! There was an email from our social worker waiting for me this evening.
So I will pick up the homestudy paperwork from her on Monday and it, along with all the other paperwork we have gathered together (collectively referred to as our dossier) gets taken down to the Secretary of State where they scrutinize all our notary stamps and then authenticate everything. Hopefully that will go smoothly, but it is not uncommon to have to “redo” something. Luckily all our references, births, marriages, etc are in AZ so anything that isn’t right should be easy to fix.
After that the dossier begins its journey – first to AWOP in Spokane, then to Washington, D.C., then to Ethiopia.
What an extra blessing this Easter weekend!
Congratulations! You are only a few short months from bringing the kids home!
I’m more excited than I can put into words right now! I actually just had a talk with the Lord about this earlier today. It’s just going to be a matter of time and those two will be here in your arms! I’m praying for all of you, Julie!!
Well, what a wonderful blessing from God and you didn’t even have to argue with Him about His timing…much!
You know you all are constantly in my prayers and this made ME sqeal with joy today. I am so anxious for you to get those kiddos home where they belong. Getting closer, Girl!
Exciting news!
Happy Easter!
Yeah baby! Whoo hooo!!! SOOO excited for your family!
Happy Easter!
Congrats! It’s so exciting to see things progressing so smoothly for you guys. Hugs & prayers…
