"Oh, the poor trees!"

Well, as of my last post I had stated that our dossier should be in Lithuania the week of Thanksgiving...Anyone who has taken the journey to adoption often uses the word "PATIENCE". Yes, this process not only kills many trees, it also test your patience. Tuesday (Nov. 25th) I received a call from our social worker stating that we needed the kids medical forms redone and they would have to be resent to Harrisburg for certification. I was hopeing to hear from Maureen this past week, but not about paperwork needing to be redone. Luckly, I was able to get the paperwork totally redone, signed by a physician, and up to Bethany Christian Services the same day. Then off the same day it went to Harrisburg. My hope is that the Bethany office received it back from Harrisburg Friday (Nov. 28th) and now it has been sent over night to the main Bethany office in Grand Rapids. I can't stress how relieved I will be to get the dossier to Lithuania...in my mind I need to know that they know we are out there working very hard for Justina!

We still have our appointment Dec. 2nd with immigration for our finger prints. Hopefully, they will process and approve our application for Justina to come to the U.S. fast!

We are all so eager to bring Justina home. We truly appreciate all the prayers and donations for Justina. Keep on praying...I know I will!

Happy Holidays!
