James 1:27

Great News!!!!


We received the call from our agency that we have been waiting for, yesterday afternoon.  We are officialy approved to adopt our kids!!  All of our documents have been approved by the Colombian government, they have all been approved and released by the court, been translated, and are now at our agency!!  Although we had already received our referral, our official approval from ICBF in Colombia was on February 17th.  All of the documents we needed in order to move on to the next step were approved by the court on February 21st, and our agency received all of the translated documents yesterday.  Now, we will send in forms called I800 to US immigration for approval to adopt the kids.  They will be sent in by the end of the week.  If everything continues to run smoothly, we will travel sometime towards the middle to the end of April.  We are very excited and continue to keep busy getting ready.  Thanks so much for sharing in our journey and our excitement!
