Our Home Study is Done!!

We are so excited to be one step closer to our sweet boy!!

When our notarized copies are ready tomorrow afternoon, we will head over to our agency to pick them up. Then, it's off to FedEx to send our i800a to immigration!

Please pray that processing goes quickly and that there are not any delays with Christmas and New Years right around the corner.
