Progress

If you haven't ordered your Warrior Necklaces, you're missing the boat.  Rebekah and Rachel have been getting orders left and right.  So many orders that Kristie had to go and get some more supplies today.  For a small donation, the girls will mail you the necklace of your choice.  Email me your orders, and you'll be impressed with how soon your necklaces arrive.

A little side note about Seth.  He has always been a curious child.  But recently, he's been asking a ton of questions:  "How do dogs wag their tails?", "Where do shadows come from?", "Does the moon move?".  I love having a boy.  I can't wait until his Latvi@n counter-part joins our family.

A quick update on our adoption.  USCIS is officially reviewing our I-800A application.  In about one week, we'll be getting our appointment information for our final round of fingerprinting.  Once the fingerprints are complete, USCIS should approve us.  We know one family who received I-800A approval 29 days after their application was received just a few weeks ago!  Once we get USCIS approval (and pay our agency $5,696), our dossier will be given to the Latvi@n Ministry.  Once approved by the Latvi@n Ministry, we will get the official invitation to travel to Latvi@.  If USCIS is actually taking 29 days, then we may be travelling as early as early June!

The Song and Dance Festival will be going on June 30th - July 7th, 2013.  This is a huge Lat>ian cultural event that's held every five years.
