Cool Stuff!

I called Rwanda today to see if the papers arrived and they did! Our helper, Peter, called the minister's office when they arrived on Wednesday and they told him to come on Monday so he said that he will email me on Monday and let me know how it goes.

I got an email today from the woman at the embassy who has been stamping all our documents and helping us through all the confusion....she was just checking to see how things were going. I was so touched by that...she remembered us and cared...she also said that she was going to be calling the minister's office soon and she would check on my paperwork for us while she had her on the phone.

Then I got an email from a man who works for an adoption agency in Virginia and said he got my name from the woman at the embassy. He has a client who is adopting from Rwanda and he needed help gathering information...like what paperwork was needed...etc. so that was fun to gather all my notes and be able to help another couple avoid all the bumps and delays we have had. The adoptive mother later emailed me herself, so we got to share stories a little bit.
So fun!!!
