Merry Christmas

Missing you at Christmas. We all wish you were at home celebrating your first Christmas. We love watching the excitement on our children's faces as they get to celebrate so many things on this great day. It is making us miss you even more.

Some things everyone wants to share with you about Christmas:

Sasha can't wait for you to see the new baby goats.
Max can't wait to see your face on your first Christmas day home.
Baba says he will have his Christmas present when you come home.
Rey and Shawnie just hope you and Cora have a great time playing together.
Cora wants to get you lots of surprises so you can have fun playing.
Mama's Christmas wish is for you to be safe, healthy, and content. I hope your transition to home is easy as it can be.

We love you so much already, We cannot wait to get to hold you safely in my arms.

Information Day

Today was a good day for information. We received an email from Linda (WACAP) about our dossier documents, she is looking them over for approval. Notice that our I-800A with supplements was sent in to USCIS and computer notice of our progress was set up to keep us updated on Min's status for approval to bring home as an adopted child. We also received the packet for the second stage of paperwork needed in hopes of a grant or loan towards the funding of our adoption from A Child Waits Foundation. It is so nice to finally hear some good news and see progress.

All of our efforts towards raising money are not working for us. We are learning that it is not always beneficial to be part of such a small group of people. Our last effort was advertising on M Live. This seemed to be a very broad reaching advertisement, not saying that it was not seen by many people because we had many views on Min's webpage, but no donations were made that our agency has notified us of at this time. Our hope is that with the continued effort to cut corners in our budget plus all of the overtime that my husband is at this time able to work will be enough to bring our little angel home.

Please keep Min in your prayers.
