I was informed by a friend that I'm not doing so great a job at keeping updates updated! (and I thank her for the reminder!) So, here's where we stand.
Our last meeting with the social worker was last Wednesday. She told us that she should have the homestudy completed by Friday (4/1). When that is completed, Kyle and I have to take it down to the USCIS office in New Orleans, get fingerprinted and wait for approval from them (immigration). We will also have all of our paperwork together and sent off to the secretary of state (in MS) 1st, then to the embassy in Miami 2nd. Once all that is back in our hands, we send it to our agency in TX and wait for a referral. I am estimating that by the end of May or beginning of June we should know who our daughter is, medical background, and birthdate. We will get to go visit soon after that for a few days. Then, 3-5 months later, we will be able to bring her home!
We will also begin applying for grants after our homestudy is complete. Please keep praying for this. We are in huge need of financial help and haven't been hearing very many people actually getting these grants. But, they go to someone, so we are praying that God will guide us to at least one that can help out with the cost.
Keep checking back. I promise to be more faithful in keeping this up!
