Adoption Update

Well, here is the Goyer adoption update …

The wait is so disheartening!

I think I told you all that our paperwork was stalled because my grandma’s fingerprints didn’t work—well that was the last of the delays. Now we found out that our state isn’t handling the I-600s any more, and it was sent to another state. We got a letter a few days ago that they don’t have our first homestudy and the revised homestudy (revised because of my maiden name problems) didn’t have original signatures. I’m sure something got lost in the office move, because everything had been fine before we did our fingerprints.

We were told the homestudy and other papers needed to be sent again in 30 days or we’d get booted out of the system and we’d have to start again. Completely start again with the I-600. The good news is that our case worker is on it, and is resending the forms. The bad news is there wasn’t even a phone number for her to call to make sure she was sending the right stuff.

Can you pray for us? So we’re like looking at 2010—if that doesn’t make me want to cry I don’t know what does.

I thank the Lord He knows … and He’s in control
