I got word last night that our dossier has been translated and is currently being authenticated. It should be submitted next week. What that means is..... we should get travel dates in about 3 weeks and could possibly meet our son in about 6-7 weeks! We are so excited!
It does get a little scary. All we have of this 5 year old boy is one picture. One picture. I can't wait to see what he is like, who he is, what things he likes, and what he doesn't. I can't wait to hold him, to teach him and to love him. He has been without love for so long, I can't wait to give him the kind of love he should have gotten all along.
Financially, it means we still need help. To be funded for our first trip and for the agency fee that is due as soon as we return, we still need to raise $3360. Our account on Reece's Rainbow needs to be at $7600. We know that God will take care of this! This was his plan all along, not ours. So far, we have paid cash for all our expenses, but we are at the point of needing help! The $7600 will cover most of our first trip along with a $4000 payment on our return.
This last week has been good. We have done "spring" stuff. Planted our garden. New baby chicks (along with added security for the chicken coop).
