At Last...
After over 14 MONTHS in our current adoption step (IBESR - Haiti's Social Services) we have finally EXITED!!!
We are on cloud nine! We received an official call from the agency on September 28 alerting us and we feel so incredibly blessed! Others that are stuck in our same current situation and completed their two week bonding trip shortly before and/or after ours are still stuck. I am praying for them and hope that more movement comes SOON!
As for us we are now on to the next step! As I've said before, each step of this process is so incredibly random and individual... BUT looking at others who have gone before, it looks like an average of anywhere from 5-9 months and we could be looking at a homecoming!
Personally... in my mind... is the date April 5. Macy's FIFTH and GOLDEN birthday! I would LOVE for her to be HOME for that milestone! It would be such perfect timing with work as well because I could take off the rest of the school year on maternity leave and then be home all summer to really help her transition!
So... prayers for a continued and smooth process! And PRAISE for moving forward!
