Hello Everyone:

Our paperwork was sent to Ethiopia today! Things are getting closer!

We got our biometrics done. It took all of 10 minutes and it just consists of fingerprinting. They had my name misspelled on my appointment sheet but hopefully the adoption agency we are working with will be able to clear that up with a contact they have at the division of homeland security.

With all of the fingerprinting and background checks we've had performed, there is no way someone wouldn't be able to track us down now.

Here are some more updates.

The agency in Atlanta, who serves as a liason between the agency in Utah and Ethiopia, is sending our documents to Washington D.C. for authentication. This will take about a week. The documents then get sent back to Atlanta. Atlanta will then send them to Ethiopia.

We're making progress!

We've received our appointment from The Division of Homeland Security to get our biometrics done. They gave us 17 Apr at 8am. Its kind of annoying that its in the morning during a workday but as long as we can get it done.

That's all for now,
Us
