Our Adoption Journey

Adoption Update: Orphanage Approval!

May 23, 2009 · 4 Comments

We are happy and excited to announce we have received orphanage approval to adopt a precious baby boy from Taiwan! I had announced our referral on our blog, but then took the post down as we waited for official word that we could proceed with this adoption. We hope to have our documents back in Taiwan shortly, where they will be submitted to court for a judge to review and rule on our adoption application.

As we have waited, I have written a few posts for our blog that I chose to keep private. If you are interested in reading them, I have now posted them publicly:

The care package we mailed to our agency in April will be sent to the orphanage next week. We will put another one together to send in June.

    Hooray! I thought I saw your referral post a while back, but then it was taken down. I was worried that it hadn’t worked out. So glad it did. Yippie!!!
