Waiting, waiting, waiting

I know its been a while, but seriously, nothing is happening. The last time I posted anything, we were waiting for a packet from Holt. I was hoping to have it the next day, but with the weekend and the holiday, it came 5 days later. The packet didn't really end up being a packet. It was a mini booklet about Holts adoption process/policies. It took 8 or 10 finely typed pages to say (in many different ways) adoption is an uncertain process and we can't hold them liable if Ethiopia changes their policies at any point in the process and we end up being delayed, disappointed etc. We had to notarize that and send it back. Once they get that, they will e mail the next steps to us. We mailed that in several days ago so I'm hoping to get the e mail Monday or Tuesday.

I finally talked to Karen at Bellefaire. She is the head person that was on vacation. She confirmed our training classes, answered some questions, took some money and then told us a one on one information meeting will have to be scheduled since we missed the last one. Guess what--she doesn't schedule them and the person that does is on vacation! Seriously?!?!? I'm hoping to hear from her tomorrow. They prefer to have the information classes done before training and our first training class is Saturday. Hopefully tomorrow will be a productive day for us. I'm still praying for patience, guidance, clarity etc etc etc...
