Entering the New Year..where are we now?

Confirmed that we need to remove ourselves from the AOF program and proceed with a normal I 600 investigation.

AOF Haiti adoption

 I 600 Haiti adoption

Praying this can go quickly.

Praying that our dossier continues to find it's way to passports in Haiti. We THINK we are in MOI now (Ministry of Interior) and this stage can take up to 16 weeks to produce passports.

Praying that once we get momentum going again on the US side we will hit no other road bumps.

According to what I have been reading once the embassy gets our I600 forms they complete the parent interviews.. we have already been informed that these interviews have been completed so we aren't too sure what they were for. Hopefully that will be a process already completed, not one that has to be repeated.

From hearing to receiving an approved I 600 takes about a month.

From the end of all investigations to visa interviews takes about a month.

Then we will receive a call to come for the visa appointment.. and then we can bring the boys home!


for those of you who..like me.. want to know time lines.. as early as March? hopefully no later than end of May

and talking of time lines....

In March we receive this updated photo and marvel at how our boys have grown since we saw them a few weeks prior. By the end of this day our little Jesley, seen sucking his thumb here, has gone home for eternity. We grieve for our son lost and our surving son and worry about him.

And yet the lord knew that Wadley needed a brother, we needed a little one and Peter needed a family! By staying open to the miracle of adoption throughout the pain of loss we have been blessed with the chance to love and nurture this little guy as well!

It's not always easy being the big brother but Wadley will learn and Peter is really looking up to him in this, our first shot of them together!

It's not easy watching your babies grow up through photos, and I can't wait to not have the time to blog because they are running around causing havoc at home! But I am so thankful that they are in an excellent Crisco, with fabulous caregivers and loving people around them.

Praying for their safety and protection while we are far from them, and for a swift entry into life here with us this year.

  1. "It's not easy to watch your babies grow up through photos" is the pain in our hearts too. Praying for all of babe's to be home so soon and be bugging us to stop taking so many pictures of them!
    Soon, very soon~Shell
