We are officially approved! This is the last piece we needed so when we pass court, we can go pick up the boys. We need this approval for the embassy appointment.
Obsi's paperwork is still not done. The orphanage is 14 hours away from Addis. After they collect what they need, it is a three hour walk to get signatures on the paperwork. There is a cell phone tower in the village a 3-hour walk away. Other than that one cell phone tower, there is no way to communicate from the village unless you go there. No electricity! The roads have gotten very bad so it isn't an easy trip. Also, there is no rushing Ethiopians. It is not in their culture. They don't make appointments. If they do, they most likely won't show up.
There is nothing I can do but wait and pray. The Lord knows when we should travel. I can't wait to see what He has in store for our family!
