Adoption Update....now we wait

We are so excited to share that we have finished all of the doctors appointments, fingerprinting, online courses, letter gathering, and paper producing that we needed to accomplish for our home study.  Our social worker is finishing up compiling all of the home study, then she will mail it to Immigration.  They will look over it and then send us a form to be fingerprinted again.  After they review the fingerprints, they will send us an approval that will then be sent to Jamiaca along with all of our paperwork.  Then we wait. 
I have heard that Jamaica is very slow, but I am praying with all my might that we will be able to pick up our son next summer while I am on vacation so that I will have plenty of time to spend with him once we get home.  Neil is hoping he will be home by this Christmas.  :)
So, if you want, you can join us in praying that Jamaica will move swiftly on our behalf (I spoke with one family who had to wait 5 years when they were adopting from Jamaica!) or you can pray for our little man who we don't know yet.  But who is probably lying in a crib somewhere in Jamaica....please pray that he will be held, fed, cuddled, cared for, tickled, and loved until we can get to him.
