NOC approval

PRAISE GOD! We have our NOC!!! We now wait to pass court and then ICPC then it will be off to India to get our daughter. Our agency said to anticipate 9-12 weeks for court and another 6 weeks for ICPC before travel. So we are looking at Feb. 2009. But I know God can work adn make things happen quicker if He wants to. I would love to go over Christmas break and take all the kids, but we will just have to wait and see what happens. But I am thankful for the great news we received today.

Still waiting to hear about our NOC. Our agency says that our case will be reviewed soon and we will have an answer very soon. We continue to pray that we will receive a favorable response. We want to get Briana home soon.

We found out on Tuesday that we were denied clearance to adopt Briana from CARA. Th denila is because we already have 4 children in our family. This was very upsetting to our family. Later in the day I talked in length with our agency and it was expalined to me that we are not the only family that this has happened to. That was a relief. We have sent a letter to CARA asking them to reconsider their position and hopefully we will get a favorable decision soon. I cannot for the life of me fathom why they would want to leave Briana in an orphanage with 200 or more kids, than allow her to have a family with 4 other children. We are praying hard that God will just intervene and birng our daughter home. We truly believe that this is a God thing and that she is meant to be with us. We hope to have Good news very soon.
Pray for us.
