USCIS approval

I just got the mail and our approval from USCIS just came!!! Thank you all SO much for all of your prayers! This is the last piece of the puzzle for the paperwork here. So amazed and thankful to God as He continues to work this whole thing out!  Eph 3:20-21 Now to him who is able to do IMMEASURABLY MORE than ALL we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen!!  The next step is that I need to travel out to Harrisburg to get a Seal put on the paper that I got today and then ALL of the paperwork gets FedExed to Ukraine.  So this means that in 4 to 5 weeks we could be going to Ukraine! It might take longer. We will see. :)

Prayer request

Huge prayer request! Please pray that our paperwork at USCIS would get approved in the next 10 days. If we don't hear from them soon we will have to get our medical information updated and that would be complicated. Thank you! <3

Fingerprints

Heading out to get USCIS fingerprints in Northeast Philadelphia! One of the last pieces of the puzzle in the adoption process! We appreciate the prayers!

(later) We were first in line with 30 people behind us. I asked how many they do a day and they said about 230 people! Thanks everyone for your thoughts and prayers. All went well.  Now we just wait! <3

Looks like we are getting to the end of everything. They estimate that we may be going over in June. So excited to possibly have a date soon!

Notarizing


Wow what a night! A HUGE thank you to Carol Quinty for notarizing 33 documents for us tonight. Carol has been a wonderful friend to me through this process of adoption. She has sacrificed a ton of time (going to the Dr's. office twice and the courthouse)She has been a very pleasant encouragement to keep on keeping on:). I have loved hearing her personal experiences of foster care and adoption. Thankful to God for bringing very special people to come along side of us and help us in this process♥♥
