Salem, Salem, Salem!
So I am so lame, I know!! We have had 3 weeks of family, so I never made it to the computer other than a glance or 2 at the ol' e-mail. Anyway, We are SO SUPER DUPER EXCITED!!!!! As Scott was glancing at our e-mail this past Friday he noticed a note from Erin at CHI. It said our dossier was on its way to ETHIOPIA!!!!!! I got all choked up. It is so awesome to see a light at the end of this long journey. It is so overwhelming to think that in a matter of months our new child will be with us.
So, we went up during prayer time at our church this morning....something that I HATE to do; I am so not comfortable in front of a crowd! Anyway, we went up just to let everyone know where we were in the adoption process and Scott said the excitement we feel is similar to if we would have announced we were pregnant. After thinking about that, it made total sense. We are now just waiting to bring our new boy/girl 0-36 months old home. We can't wait!!! Its a good thing this summer is jam packed, maybe time will fly.
~Ciao!
