I have lost track of how many different forms we have had to file, not to mention the seemingly countless documents we were required to get notarized (Me and Camille at the bank are pretty tight by now). I am happy to say, this weekend, we filed our LAST form. That is right, everything is done!
Assuming we did everything right, the next form we receive will be approval for Quinn to come home! After that, we just wait for a date to go get him. (for those of you following that nifty flow chart, we are now on step 10.) If things move REALLY fast, we could be in Vietnam and with Quinn for Christmas. If things move at a normal pace, I expect we will travel to get him in January.
We are excited beyond belief, and scared to the extreme. But, we are constantly reminded that God is at the helm. He led us to where we are and that brings comfort. This isn't the end of what already feels like a really long story, it is just the beginning. Knowing that this is the right path for us, and that Quinn is meant to be in our family makes all the difference. We can't wait to start the next leg in our adoption journey - being a family. I'm sure many of you already know the challenges that parenthood brings, and we can only imagine at this point. But we won't have to imagine for very much longer :)
We can't express enough, our gratitude for your support, thoughts, and prayers as we have tackled this crazy process to bring Quinn home. We are almost there! We would ask, yet again, for your continued support and prayers as we are on the final leg of this journey.
