Another obstacle to test our faith..

As of March 1st all families adopting from Ethiopia will be required to travel TWICE! First time about 4-8 weeks after we recieve our referral ( for 5-7 days)and then again about 10-12 weeks later when we go to pick up our children. I am excited that we will get to see our children but we will then have to leave them again. The problem is this is going to add quite a bit of money to our total..probably another 5-7,000 dollars! My hope was to be able to take all of our children with us when we travel to go get our children but this extra expense changes alot! It also requires another week away from our jobs and our children. I know in the end it will all work out but lately I have been waiting for some good news..we have hit road block after road block!
