Good with the Difficult

We have some good news to tell.
We are hoping to send off our Dossier papers next week to Ethiopia! We are only waiting on two more forms to come back to us. (hopefully this week.)
Now the difficult news... we have just learned that the waiting time for a referral has increased from 18 to 24 months to 24-30 months.
All in all we know that God's timing is perfect and only His ways are right. We continue to trust Him in this and we are not stopping unless He tells us to.
So please - continue to pray not only for us but for the the children that need to be adopted and that their paperwork would be in the hands of the right people that would process with grace and speed in Ethiopia.
We have heard it said many times by other adopted parents ... adoption is expecting the unexpected.
