hooray!

Well...all of our friends (the 8 other families we knew who were approved) received their referrals this week! We're so excited for them. I guess we're next! :)

The Ministry (that approves everything for adoption) had a super busy week this week, with several events and meetings advocating for children in Rwanda. Adoption approval is only one small part of their job, so while we hope our referral is on their priority list soon, we understand that they are always advocating and caring for children and can't always have their full attention on finalizing adoptions. I'm not sure what next week holds for them but of course I'd love it if it includes sending us our referral! Hunter and I will be apart on Thursday and Friday so we're hoping it will be before that...but of course we'll be excited whatever day it gets here. Trying to imagine opening it in different places (not great)...but trying to imagine waiting a few days with it in my inbox...not possible probably.

Hope you all have a great weekend!
