I-171H

We received our approval from the Department of Immigration to adopt an orphan! This was really fast, it came only 2 weeks after we got our fingerprints, and sometimes this takes months! From here we have to make sure it gets to Ethiopia so that when we get a referral there are no hangups. That sounds simple, but apparently many people's are getting lost somewhere between the local Immigration office and the National Visa Center so I'll be spending some time on the phone soon making sure that everything is happening the way it's supposed to.
