We were able to get re-fingerprinted last week and are now just waiting for the updated I-171H. We are so close to the end but at the same time it seems so far away. We continue to pray that God would wrap His arms around our baby and keep him safe till we can bring him home.

Another week
Well it is the start of another week and still no phone call. The end of the month is coming quickly and I keep hoping and praying we get our referral . Ethiopia has now passed a law stating that adoptive parents must travel to Ethiopia and be present for the court date which was not required before. Any case with a court date after May 8th will have to abide by this new requirement. We are praying that by some miracle we will get our referral and court date before that. The expense of two trips to Ethiopia is staggering but the thought of holding our baby in our arms than having to leave without bringing him with us is heartbreaking.
