This is me this morning before work taking a webcam photo of our first package of adoption paperwork.  Yes, we FINALLY mailed paperwork and a BIG ol' check off to our agency this morning.  Whew!  It feels good to have this leg of the journey behind us. 

It's been an awesome day!  I have more good things to share later about that.  

What's next you ask?

We wait for a call from our case worker.  Then, our agency will send us an adoption planner that will have original copies of all this paperwork + all the paperwork required for the next phase:  the Dossier.  

What in the world is a Dossier you ask?  (pronounced doss-eee-ay)

It's just a fancy name for an even bigger bunch of official, legal, government paperwork that we will fill out and send in along with more $$.  We will have six months to complete the Dossier and raise/save the needed amount of money for the next payment.  

You can get involved by:
  1. praying for us as we continue on this arduous but exciting journey
  2. praying for our child who may already be alive living in an orphanage on the other side of the world
  3. purchasing one of our adoption t-shirts here.
  4. Or, simply making a financial contribution through our Paypal donate button. 


Thanks for reading,
