For a minute I considered titling this update, "Cue The Crickets" because that pretty much sums up the month of April as far as adoption information goes.
April 3rd- We received and email from our case worker's assistant saying they had read over and approved everything for our dossier and that, that day (April 3rd) they were sending the final documents we needed authenticated to Washington D.C.
Also, in the email she mentioned that we had forgotten to include our Family Summary Sheet and could I fill it out and email it to our case worker right away.
I filled the sheet out that night and emailed it to our case worker.
April 4th- Heard from our case worker who said the Family Summary Sheet looked great!
Enter crickets...
April 16th- I emailed our case worker to see if there was any news about our documents returning from D.C.
There wasn't. I was told it typically takes several weeks (it had been about 2 weeks at that point).
As I'm typing this, it's been 4 weeks since our documents were sent to be authenticated and we have still not heard that they're back.
Crickets, still here...
So, we're still waiting, obviously. The waiting isn't getting easier, in fact I've gotten a bit anxious, since our dossier won't ship until our documents are authenticated, which means until then we're not much closer to finding out who our daughter is.
If you are praying for us, please pray for patience for us (me more specifically). And pray that we continue to trust God and His timing.
We'll stil be listening to the crickets throughout May, we're just hoping we'll be listening while our dossier is in China.
