Dossier is off to Ethiopia: the official wait begins


We can finally start the official "referral" wait! Currently the average wait for a referral is about 4-6 months...at that time we can see our daughter's beautiful face! We received word that our dossier was sent to Ethiopia today and will arrive tomorrow. We wonder how many times we will be checking the DHL tracking number over the next 24 hours, probably several. Everyone says that the wait is the hardest part, and I believe that, so we will be keeping ourselves busy with projects around the house, some traveling, and preparing for the arrival of our daughter. 

“Everything you want is out there waiting for you to ask. Everything you want also wants you. But you have to take action to get it.” ~Jules Renard 

This journey for us has been incredible already for so many reasons. Yes, at times it is an emotional roller coaster, but we feel so incredibly blessed to be given the opportunity to be on this journey of love.
