A few details

I talked to our social worker today and got a bit more info about the delay in paperwork. I guess our agency in Korea (Eastern Social Welfare Services) hit their "quota" of kids adopted internationally for the year. Therefore the Korean government will not process anymore paperwork for international adoption from Eastern this year. This has happened in previous years but not quite so soon in the year and not to families that have already been waiting 3+ months since their referral. Eastern is planning to submit paperwork on all waiting children in January, however, the Korean government may not accept all of it at once. In that case it will be submitted based on acceptance date. So still a lot of uncerainties but it is good to get answers. Oh we finally got that paper from LA immigration today! Praise God for his work in this.

And the waiting continues until 2010

Hi everyone, we received some disappointing news today. The Korean government will not be accepting any more paperwork until 2010. So we will not be getting Ezra this year and we are unsure how and when they will process paperwork when they start back up in 2010. Mike and I are bummed, but trusting that God has a plan in all of this. Thank you for all of your prayers.
