We received word this week that our timeline could be a little longer than we expected. With the troubles in Vietnam, some VN provinces cannot complete adoptions -- which eliminates 2 orphanages that our agency used. There are still 5 other orphanages that continue to place babies with our agency. It looks like it may be summer or fall when we receive our referral (match with Lela). But you never know...we're still hopeful it will be soon.
It is sad on many levels. We were also told of some babies that had passed away due to the cold weather (this is the cold season in VN). Oh, how we take our medical care & our warm houses for granted.
It is hard to make sense of it all. It is hard to understand why the wait is so long when so many babies need homes.
We seek your prayers.
