So confusing!

OK...I will try to help you understand what has been happening although I'm not sure I understand it myself. I should start by saying that Peter was told the other day (I guess) from someone in the immigration office that it would be OK to start the passport process without the final letter from the minister's office. This final letter is called the travel document or the "To Whom it May Concern..." letter. So Peter went to immigration today and they looked at all the documents that we had and they said that we are only missing one...the travel document! They told him that they need that document before they will even begin the passport process! He immediately took JP to the minister's office. Unfortunately, the woman he has been dealing with was not there, she was attending a meeting. He called her and she said again that she will not give him the final paper until the adoptive parents arrive. She said for him to call her again tomorrow as she was going to check again with the other people who work with her regarding this policy. So tomorrow we will hopefully have a definitive answer and we pray that they will give the travel letter to Peter so that we can start the passport process before we arrive so that we don't have to be away from home for such a long time. It could be a month or longer if we have to wait 2 weeks for a passport in Rwanda and 2 weeks for the visa in Kenya! I'm praying for peace!
