The waiting is over! This past week, on Tuesday, March19th, we received notice that our Article 5 was issued and we were given a date to meet with ICBF in Colombia. Our ICBF meeting date in Neiva is April 10th - we don't know for certain yet whether we will "get" Laura on the afternoon of the 10th or if we'll have to wait until the 11th. We will be heading to Colombia the Sunday before, April 7th.
A couple days later this week we received more news - Laura has received the care package we sent her and knows we will be adopting her. In the words of one of our ICBGF contacts, Laura is super feliz (happy). We have a video chat scheduled with her for this afternoon and, for the first time, will be able to talk about adoption. We are looking forward to it with hopeful anticipation. It's hard to believe that in just over two weeks we will get to see our new daughter and shower her with love!
What happened??? Dying for an update :)
