Good Morning All,

Just a brief update.

Lizzie and I are continuing our preparations to bring home a child home from Kyrgyzstan. On Thursday we received a rough draft of our home study, and needless to say, it went quite well. Our social worker and agency representative to Kyrgyzstan believe we are good candidates for international adoption.

Also, we had our pictures taken to renew our passports to ensure that neither of our documents expire before we are done traveling to country.

Peace,
Eric

Excitement

As Eric and I learn more and more about Kyrgyzstan and the adoption program there, we find ourselves getting more and more excited. We received some information from our social worker this week, and it sounds like after we finish our home study/dossier/governmental paperwork, which might take 2-3 months that we could receive a referral only 2-6 months after that. So, all that being said, it is very possible we could have a referral by Christmas-time. It all is beginning to sink in for us. Going into kiddos yellow room, imagining the long plane ride to Kyrgyzstan helps us to realize that it is all real and our child  will be coming to us before we know it. It is so nice to share all of this with everyone. Everyone's support and love has been so wonderful, and we could not be happier.

Oh, and yes, the name of the blog now reflects the new country from which we are adopting. :)
