Hi Everyone! Mark insisted, once he finally observed some other blogs, that we start one. I had totally planned to create a yahoo group, so you must have patience because I know absolutely nothing about creating a blog design. I want it to be beautiful, of course. Presley deserves it. So, I must do some research now. If anyone has suggestions, please let me know.
There will not be much information on our travel until a few more weeks. Right now, we are very busy updating forms. FORMS, FORMS AND MORE FORMS.
Because Presley's specific special need or age was not included in our homestudy or on our original immigration approval, we must do some additional work. Our immigration approval will expire in November. We can not be sure that we will travel before expiration, so we are renewing. We can not renew until 90 days prior (August 17th) so we are preparing to send this paperwork on Tuesday, August 17th. We hope and pray that our assigned officer will agree that we MUST travel ASAP to bring our daughter home and will process the needed paperwork quickly.
Once we are approved again by OUR government to adopt Presley, we will make more progress. Until then, please pray for us and Presley, that we may travel soon to bring her home.
We hope to be sending a package to her in the next week. We hope to include in this package some photos of us, a very, very soft blanket, "lovie", a build a bear to include a voice recorder of us 3, some candies for the children and nannies and a disposable camera. We have all been sleeping with these items to get our smell all over them so that maybe, just maybe, she might recognize and attach to us more easily.
I think I like blogging after all. There is a lot to say. It might be helpful to just me, to get it all "out there".
Thanks friends, for your thoughts, prayers and well wishes. You are all a part of Presley's new family. Thanks for sharing this absolute awesome gift from God.
Stay tuned!
Georgia, Mark and Kendall
