Officially Waiting

Today my agency representative let me know that as of yesterday I am officially on the wait list now that she has seen my dossier and it looks in order. Yippee!!! She said I am either #16 or #17 on the list. My dossier is now on its way for approval and certification at various places, including Oregon and DC, before making its trek overseas to Ethiopia. It will take about 3-4 weeks to go where it needs to go before arriving there.

Homestudy Completed

Today my homestudy social worker emailed my homestudy for approval. My excitement is growing daily as I realize that each step is getting me closer to my daughter. The next step will be to get my homestudy notarized and state sealed, and mail it with my dossier. Hopefully I can get that done in the next week too.
