Accepted :)

We found out last Friday that we were officially accepted into the Russian adoption program. Now we are just waiting for our paper work to arrive so we can begin getting it all filled out and providing all of our documentation. What used to be called the dossier (36 pages long) has been consolidated into a 12 page initial application. Once this is filled out we will have our home study and the paperwork will be mailed off to Russia for approval. Prayer request: that our case manager (Anna) will continue to be on top of things and not let our paperwork sit on her desk. She told me last Monday that she would be mailing this to me and we have yet to receive it. Pray for us to not be anxious as we do nothing but wait on everyone else! FYI, I had to laugh when I went to get my passport photo taken and I was told not to smile or wear earrings. Apparently you are not allowed to do either one any more. The funny part was when she asked if I liked my picture. How much can you like an extreme close up of yourself with no jewelry on and not smiling. Hmmmm, yes...I like my mugshot ;)
