Travel Approval--any day now!

We are waiting on the last step before we get travel approval.  C'mon immigration!  We have a little boy to bring home.  It seems crazy to be preparing to go.  We started this adoption journey so long ago and the wait is finally almost over.  Jatin will be home and I will sleep better knowing that all of my children are under the same roof.  Well, sleep maybe not so much-but there will be such a sweet peace in my heart. 

Daddy and I love you so much, Jatin!  We will be holding you in just a few weeks now.  Emerson is excited to meet you, too.  She talks about you everyday.  Points at your pictures around the house, lays on your bed, plays with your toys, shows us where you will sit at our kitchen table.  You are so, so loved.  By your earthly family and more importantly, by your heavenly Father.

WE ARE COMING, JATIN!!

When we spoke to Lisa on Friday, she said to prepare for travel in 3-4 weeks!!!   Our IL clearances have arrived and Jatin's passport is at his RIPA.  JOH sent our new homestudy to immigration and asked that our case be expedited.  We could have our travel approval as soon as next week!!  Please keep all of us in your prayers as we prepare to travel and become a family of 5!

We are getting there...

Yesterday we heard from our agency that we have our IL clearances.  We are now only waiting on an IL endorsement letter, the go ahead from immigration (we updated our finger prints on 12/21/12), and to hear that Jatin's passport in at his RIPA.  Then it's time to travel!!  THIS IS THE YEAR!  We are going to meet our son soon.
