Thanks to our case worker who sent us this picture, we are now certain that we have moved on to the next step in the process. Now we wait for the court date which we are hoping will come as soon as possible.
We keep learning new things as we go along. Yesterday we learned that I was mistaken about needing to be in Ghana for several days before the court appearance to adopt Hugo. In reality, the court appearance will happen in the first few days. We will still be there for 10-12 days, though, as we wait for some paperwork to process that we need to apply for the I600 (not to be confused with the I600A which we already processed).
While we are thrilled that the dossier is now overseas, we have also entered the next phase of waiting. There will be little to report so posting will likely be less frequent. As we learn new things about adoption, we will write about them here and post links from facebook. We would also be very happy to address any questions you may have. Please feel free to leave questions in the comment section.
Thank you for being with us on this journey, and please be patient while we wait for further developments.
We are patient along with you! Ours is much easier than yours, though...
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure you answered this earlier and I missed it, but how long is it between the 2 Ghana trips? I know you said you'd like to be able to go in August, so if that happened would you be able to bring Hugo home in August too? I think my biggest question among those others is are you hoping to bring Hugo home in August? This is all so cool!
ReplyDeleteMarissa,
DeleteAt this point we have no idea when we are traveling but we know that he will not be able to come home in one trip. There are usually 60-90 days between the two trips. :(
