Could it be?

Well, today I went from being very frustrated to encouraged.  We found out that the orphanage wants to see our Home Study File.  Unfortunately, we don't have our Home Study.  But then we found out that our Home Study has actually been reviewed and only needs one minor change.  Hopefully by the end of the week, we will have the approval letter and the home study in our possession  and be on to the next steps!  Immigration paperwork is next and can take 2-6 weeks and then we can submit the Dossier (like a Home Study for Colombia, with more information) which can take 3 months.  Wow.  It seems like it has been so long so far that it almost feels like we are a hibernating bear, waking up from a long winter's nap, ready to get moving again.
