Good News it is then.
Well, today we woke up and had an email from AWAA saying that we were accepted to their Rwanda program. So we're on the move... FORWARD finally!
I take it back. There is no "bad" news. It's just that i sit here this morning looking through all the "paperwork" (it's on the computer) and I realize it's not quite as easy as I thought it would be. Some of your adopt-y people are saying: "easy"?? I mean easier b/c we have done so much of it already with our Kenya adoption. Apparently it's been a while and I have forgotten a few things. Like getting papers notarized. For anyone living in the states, it's no big deal. For us, it is a big deal. Last time we ended up coming home to do a lot of it. I really don't want to wait until the end of November to get this going b/c I already have SO SO much lined up for when we come home. And the homestudy- I'm not even going there right now.
Ugh.... I am just so, so, so, overwhelmed. It makes me nauseous just thinking about what all we are re-doing. Guess thats my morning sickness. It is 9am...
Zofran please!
Linders, you only need an ammendment to your homestudy- not a whole new one. They essentially will just change all the references to Kenya to Rwanda- at least that is what our social worker did. As for the other papers, can you get them back from your original dossier since they are still under the one year mark? Some might work, others may not. I know that you will need a physical less than 3 months old so that will have to be redone.One thing at a time, friend. One day at a time...I am holding on right there with you! Emily
ReplyDeleteYou can do it!! I know it's overwhelming, but it's so, so, so worth it! What can I help you with?
ReplyDeleteI've got some extra Zofran that I'm pretty much done with that I can ship to you.
ReplyDeleteAnd, WHAT CAN I DO? You know Luke's a notary....right? Is it possible to fax stuff? And have him notarize it via skype?
Just had another thought. Is it possible for your POA's to sign stuff on your behalf?
ReplyDeleteMaybe I'm clueless, just racking my brain to help.
YEAH...you are on your way to get your kiddo(s) from Rwanda. Praying for you as you get your paperwork together!
