maybe next time

It looks like we were not submitted to Embassy again.  The document we need has not arrived yet, and when it does arrive it will need to be translated--so even if it arrived today it wouldn't have been ready to submit.

I don't have anything grand to say other than I'm sad.  I'm tired of all the delays. 

Here's a nice note from a family picking up their girls in Ethiopia right now:

You're kids seem to be doing great, they greeted us with big hugs and smiles and loved the picture [we sent a family picture of all 7 of us to each of them].  Hawi seemed much more talkative than I remember and Misikir talked my leg off from the time we got there until we left.  Asking about where T. and T. [their daughters] would live and how close he and Hawi would be to them and other various things.

We played with all the kids for about an hour before leaving, seems like a very happy place.


They are both really great kids.


Misikir had on the W hoodie, it appeared he had been wearing it for a while, we think he is proud to be a Winowiski.


I whispered in Hawi's ear before we left that Mom and Dad would be here soon, she beamed with happiness.
