So.........after a long, LONG wait, we have almost completed the
switch..........we are officially signed and accepted with AWAA and will
be trying to adopt from Ethiopia. The whole Russian fiasco with the
child who was sent back was out of control and there were too many
changes to the laws, etc., and we were no longer qualified so we pulled
out.
AWAA is the same agency my friend Tracy is adopting through (Ethiopia as
well!) and we just received all the information for starting this
process AGAIN! I feel very overwhelmed, but it's wonderful that AWAA is
so encouraging. I'm almost never scared but I have to admit, right now I
am.......it's such a huge, complicated, and unpredictable process. I
don't know how we would make it without Jesus!
After we fill out all the starting paperwork, we will be assigned a
social worker and an agent to work with for the Ethiopian
process.........more details to follow ;) Love you all! Thank you for
your prayers and support. It's incredible to have friends and family
like you! <3
Welcome to Ruperville. This is the story of two kids who got married and then adopted an ever-growing number of teenagers from Africa. This journey has been wild, and we've learned a lot.... Love always wins. Jesus is bigger. And faith + God = MIRACLES.
