Back in September 2015, the government agency in Ryan's country put our application on hold because I was not yet 5 years out from my diagnosis.
At the time, waiting a little over 4 months felt like an eternity. However, through God's grace and infinite wisdom, the waiting period actually flew by. God blessed us with a very long foster baby placement- 13 weeks. Having Baby Zeb here made our days so busy and fun, before I knew it, we were at the end of January. And since Zeb left at the end of January, I have been playing catch up around the house since I didn't get many chores done with a baby in the house.
So now just two more weeks and then we can get things moving again. We still don't know if they will approve our application, but at least we are getting ever closer to knowing...
Another way God blessed us over this waiting period was being able to get 2 updates on Ryan: one from the family that traveled in January and now just this week, the facilitator for our adoption agency sent some photos of Ryan at a Mardi Gras party at the orphanage. He is dressed like a pirate- soooo cute!
We are excited because another RR family will be traveling soon to the same orphanage so that might mean another update!
