Baptism, Parties, and Paperwork...Oh my!

Hello!

We've had a very busy couple days! In the last week we celebrated my birthday, Gabrielle's baptism, our anniversary and preparing for the upcoming adoption party! If that wasn't enough, we received an email from the director of Adoption Assistance, letting us know it was time to send in our I600a form. The official name of the I600A is the “Application For Advance Processing of Orphan Petition”. The form is the key to processing the international adoption and for processing the immigration of the adopted child. Unfortunately, this form could take up to 50-60 days to be processed. Again, we must patiently wait and pray that this part of the process goes smoothly.

Also, I wanted to update everyone on Our Hope Necklace Project. I am in awe by all the people who have purchased my necklaces! I have a few new pearls that I have wire wrapped and are now available!  These will be shown at the adoption party.




The above necklace is a 18" snake chain, with hope affirmation charm and green freshwater pearl.




In the above picture my mother is wearing the 18" snake chain, hope affirmation charm, with a pink freshwater pearl.
