In Review!

We are ending our 39th day of waiting for our LOA! The time has FLOWN!!! Roger and I have been SO busy at work, chasing Emma, and transporting Parker that we haven't had time to take a breath lately! We received an email from our coordinator on Friday that one of our forms was outdated, so we had to complete a new one and email it to her that night. That means that we are in the REVIEW ROOM!!! Wow! That is exciting! The waiting time for the LOAs has been decreasing rapidly over the last month. What used to be a 90 day wait has dropped to a 70 day wait! Good news on one front, but scaring us a little! We aren't ready!

We are still waiting to hear from Shaohannah's Hope, but we did have some positive news on the financial front. Roger has been working very hard to get adoption benefits pushed through for local government employees. God has blessed his efforts, and it looks like that may go into effect for the next budget! I'm so proud of him for accepting the challenge! So many people have helped him with letters of support, etc. We are so grateful, and hope that this will encourage government employees to consider adoption as a possible way to expand their families.

Hope that everyone is well, and enjoying these warmer temperatures! Have a great week!
