After weeks of paperwork to change our country to Korea, accept the referral of our son, and get all of the necessary agency approvals, we now wait patiently to travel. Did I say patiently?
Both South Korea (hereinafter “Korea”) and the U.S. have to give the paperwork the final stamps of approval before we can travel. Yesterday we were told that the paperwork is moving so quickly we may travel in 8-10 weeks rather than the 4 months we were originally quoted. (YAY!) We are so excited and looking forward to meeting our son for the first time.
I never realized how superstitious I am until now – I’m almost afraid to put all of this in writing. I think that is why I did such a good job procrastinating ordering the furniture for the nursery, despite the four grandparents offering to buy it for us (thank you, thank you, thank you!!!) for quite some time now. We finally went last night to order the set we picked out, and we were told it would take 8-10 weeks for the furniture to arrive at their warehouse. 8-10 weeks?! What do you mean?! I expect to be traveling to Korea in 8-10 weeks!! I can see it now – putting together a crib at midnight after a long 15 plus hour flight home. teeheee…
Yay!!!!! You are blogging. And you are on top of all this. Thanks for linking my blog!!!
