Strong Girl

Our sweet girl is halfway through her many visits to the clinic for tests and vaccinations. I hate that she's having to do this without us, but our friend Paul says, she is strong and courageous. And he is a Daddy, so I know he's making sure she's ok. Here are pictures from yesterday (and she's actually in a dress I sent over with Geoff!). Please pray for her as she endures all these pokes and visits that are so new to her.

Latest news on the immigration front: we have verbal approval from our officer as of Friday for our I600!!! This is huge, but I want to see it on paper, which is why I've been hesitant to shout it to the world. Despite my desire to check in with our officer hourly, I am holding back, but she promises me we are good to go and the official letter will be out soon. Not only is this huge because this puts us so close to being able to get her, but this is huge because of all the new US laws that we were in middle of. We didn't know if we would have to go find an agency to represent us, get a new home study, etc. We are praising God that we didn't have to do any of that! He is always faithful. Always. Always. Always.
