She has no notes with her when she was found. She is a smart girl with very quick reaction.  We hope her parents could love her wholeheartedly and educate her well.  She would become a great girl in the future.

Yesterday we received our I800 approval....Now we are on to the Article 5 step and then waiting on TA..

PS.... I spoke with my adoption agency yesterday and they said we are most likely about 5 weeks away from our Travel Approval and then we would set up our travel plans.  Which looks like the first week of June....Which in the farming world is very bad!!!

Please pray that something miraculous might happen and we might travel sooner!! 

But whenever we go we know that is when God wants us to go!! But ole how it hurts to wait!!
