This Time I Want Something OLD.....

School is full swing and now I have more time to miss Kimberlie and wonder (keeping it positive) when my little sweety pies will be home with me.

Here is an update on my adoption.... 

Last week, Haiti’s adoption authority, Institut du Bien-Être Sociale et de Recherches (IBESR), announced new administrative adoption procedures, which will take effect on October 1, 2012. 

This, I knew would be coming sooner or later-because Haiti has signed and ratified The Hague Convention. Big words, but basically, the adopting process will be changing. The changes, eventually, will be good for children and families, but, could also present a real big bump for Kimberlie and I. The challenge is no one really knows what the "changes" are going to be in the process.

Here's more pieces to the puzzle.....
IBESR has informed the U.S. government that it will process adoption cases submitted prior to May 7, 2012 under pre-existing adoption procedures.  IBESR has also informed the U.S. government that they will review new cases submitted up to and including September 15, 2012 to determine if they can be processed under the old procedures.

Mine dossier (aka case) was submitted to IBESR on Sept. 6, 2012...so PLEASE pray with me that my dossier case will be able to processed under the old "pre-existing" adoption procedures.

This time I want something old......

One more thing I would appreciate prayer for is to be able to stay with my agency, Bethany Christian Services, through the duration of my adoption.  Haiti will be only working with certain agencies and agencies need to apply to be one of the certain agencies.  Please pray Bethany will be chosen !!  

 Thanks sooo much for your prayers, last time we prayed together I got my referral in four days!! Prayer is powerful....and God continues to be GOOD!!!!!!
