One step closer

Our homestudy is done! It will soon be on its way to the agency.

Next steps include:

* Immigration, including more fingerprints (even though we’ve already had them done through the FBI…ain’t government red-tape grand?), and Homeland Security.

* Original documents certified by the State. This paperchase shouldn’t be as daunting as the first, since we have most of the originals now. After certification, they’ll be added to our dossier, which will be sent to Ethiopia.

* After all of this is completed and dossier is sent overseas, we wait again. This time for a Court Date so they can tell us Little Girl is ours!

    Ah, yes. The fun is just beginning!
