Today is a special day for us. 5 years ago today, we boarded the flight to China to adopt Abby. I can't believe it's been 5 years already. 4 years ago today, our dossier was sent to China to adopt Jadyn. Amazed it's been 4 years. Now here we are, Nov 4th and in another adoption. I had hoped maybe TA would come, but with the week we had last week that is unlikely.
We received a letter from USCIS saying that I filled out our I800 wrong. All of the information was correct. Except Bill should have filled it all out, not me. So we had to redo it and send it back. We had to send it USPS because it was going to a PO Box. It was supposed to be delivered last Thursday or Friday. It did not get delivered until Monday afternoon (4 PM). As you can imagine I'm very upset about this setback. I've been told that this should not delay us in getting TA. I don't see how it won't. BUT, I'm trusting in God. He has it all planned out. The trip is already in the works and we will go when He wants us to go. We will have Ethan in our arms shortly. It might not be December. But it could be. We just do not know. And the unknown is what is killing me.
So here we are, Nov 4th. What could happen today for us? I'm now praying that our I800 approval gets cabled to Guangzhou. That would be awesome if it did.
Please pray for my sanity. :-) Pray that I can get through this wait. Pray for Ethan as he waits for us. Thank You!

You can (and you will) get thru this wait - by the grace of God, you will. God has had this all planned out since before the beginning of time and His will will not be thwarted. He has sweet Ethan in His tender, loving hands and He is comforting him even now... just as He will do for you if you'll let Him.
ReplyDeleteGrace and peace and patience and comfort to you (to us both), my friend,

You and Ethan have been in my prayers and will be! I'm hoping you get good news this week that your approval has been cabled and that you will be one step closer to Ethan. That's so neat that all three of your adoptions have had something important going on this week in the past. I'm hoping you get one of the best Christmas presents ever this year!!

I will be praying for you. I was so nervous filling all that paperwork out ! I am so surprised I didn't get a call ! I have no idea what is going on with my I800 - I hope everything is ok and we can all travel soon !
