DAY 1...

OUR DOSSIER LEFT AMERICA TODAY AND IS MAKING ITS WAY TO ETHIOPIA!!!  YAY!!!  WE ARE NOW SIMPLY WAITING FOR THE REFERRAL OF A BABY.  TECHNICALLY,WE ARE WAITING FOR THE CHILD U.S. CUSTOMS AND IMMIGRATION APPROVED US FOR: A BABY OF EITHER GENDER AGED 0-6 MONTHS.  CELEBRATE CHILDREN (OUR AGENCY) CALLED TODAY AND SAID THAT WE ARE THIRD IN LINE WAITING FOR AN INFANT, SO THE WAIT SHOULDN'T BE TOO LONG. IN REALITY, OUR CHILD IS LIKELY ALREADY BORN, SO PLEASE PRAY FOR HIS OR HER WELL-BEING, JOURNEY TO THE ORPHANAGE, HIS OR HER BIRTH FAMILY, AND THE MIRACLE THAT GOD WILL PERFORM BY PLACING THIS AFRICAN CHILD INTO OUR AMERICAN HANDS SO THAT ONE OF HIS SOULS CAN FULFILL THE PURPOSE HE WAS CREATED FOR.  THE COUNTDOWN BEGINS...
