More news....and not great news.

It seems that every time we think we are making some head way with our adoption we are kicked in the teeth with bad news. Last week we were told that 3 out of the 5 orphanages are temporary on hold for adoptions right now. We are still unsure of why this is happening. The agency is trying to find this out for us as well. This will mean longer delays with our adoption. It’s just want we needed to hear.

Then yesterday I only find out that there’s a possible chance that we will now have to travel to Ethiopia twice to be able to adopt our child. Part of me was excited to have the possibility to see our child before we take them home. Now there’s more money to be collected and no guarantee of the adoption going through. It’s just a scary feeling to have right now. I’m hoping for a happy ending.

It's very discouraging. I often hear it said that international adoption is a roller coaster, and I can't think of a better term my self - it truly is. Let's hope that the negotiator (on behalf of the 70 countries) is able to work some magic.
