We are nearing the end of the enormous amount of paperwork that we must have in order to finalize our adoption. Yesterday we sent one last form and today we received our provisional permission from Homeland security to adopt the girls from Colombia. The stipulation is that we must secure our visas to travel there and while in Colombia get the visas for the girls (this is why is provisional). The form sent yesterday is one that states how long we plan we stay in Colombia, where we will stay etc. Our Medellin representative has assured us that if we travel after the second week of April, we will have a better chance of getting an apartment, this would be after the Easter Holiday.
We also sent books for each girl that had pictures, and a letter specifically for each girl. Alex worked hard on that on Thursday and did not go to work. We both worked yesterday to make up the time we have spent trying to finalize everything and running after our agency to get questions answered. Alex talks or e-mails the agency on a daily basis.
Here is a picture of Alex at Office Depot, a store in which we found this great lady, Alice who put these beautiful books together and then a picture of Alex at Fed Ex ( a place we visit at least once a week for the last month or so). More to come...
