Fingerprint Appt!

Woohoo!!! We got the letter saying we can get printed! So exciting! We will try to walk in on Fri morning and get them done! From what I have read about others, we may have our approval by next wk sometime??? That would be AWESOME!!!!!! We would totally be able to get the dossier submitted b4 the June date of possible country changes; maybe we can make it by June 9th!!! Pray!!!!! Some people have had it still take a few wks after fingerprints... so who knows. In God's time!

I guess we really need to ramp up the fundraising! We have a ways to go yet!!!
Please purchase a shirt, or coffee, or support Jay (jaywalkingwithgod.blogspot.com)who is helping Peyton, or just donate if you feel led!

Shirts ARE IN!! Come and get them!





Here is a look at the actual shirts now in hand... they are 50/50 poly cotton blend.

You can order on the link on the side bar if you will not see me personally. Make sure to write me and tell me what sizes and give me your address. They are $15 each. Add $3 for shipping if needed. All money goes to the adoption. Thanks! Pass this around to everyone you know!

CSP on it's way!

i have not posted in a while so thought I would do that today... We have gotten the ok on all CSP papers and we had them apostilled yesterday along with almost all the rest of the papers. We still have a few we need to do to finish off the dossier but most of it is ready as well. I am going to run to FedEx in a min to mail off the CSP docs!!! Woohoo! The CSP is the petition to adopt a specific child. So this is what they will turn into the country to get Peyton reserved for us on their end.

We also got a letter from immigration that says they have received our stuff will send us fingerprinting info soon. Hopefully in the next month or so we will see our approval come through.

Also, just got word the shirts are done at printer! Will go pick them up and post pics ASAP!

Keep praying everything moves fwd and no major hiccups get in the way. Pray for speedy mailing and speedy immigration process. Pray for the country to stay open for this adoption to take place!

Thanks

a longer wait...

today I was going to write with a smile on my face sharing a wonderful new pic I have of Peyton...

However today I write with frustration and low spirit. Just got our USCIS stuff returned to us in the mail. Somehow I sent them the wrong amt of money so they gave everything back. I have no idea how I managed to do that. It is so upsetting. So later today I will go re-overnight this to them. We are now adding another almost 3wks to the timeline!!! This might mess up everything!

I know God has a plan and he knows what is going on. I know his timing is perfect and his will is best. Yet, it is hard living in the unknown when it comes to rescuing your son and the ability to do so might come to an end because of govt workings.

We also had all our dossier papers notarized over the weekend. I just found out today that half of them need to be redone. We also need to now have 3 copies of something that before only needed 2 copies of. So we will be going through paperwork yet again! They also want some of the papers now ASAP, so we need to get them done and apostilled and shipped ASAP.

I am so tired of all this paperwork, so many legalities, it drives a person bonkers.

Pray that this time the USCIS stuff is right and goes through quickly, pray for favor! We are still unsure of what changes might take place in June in his country. Pray it stays open!!!!! We most likely will no longer be able to submit in June, more like July at the earliest. So instead of the summer, we will prolly not get him till the Fall :(

Anyway, i will go ahead and share the pic...




so ready to hug this precious boy!!!
