I600A Off To Immigration!!!!

Well, Jerry stepped off the plane from Bolivia today (Saturday) and signed the paperwork (form I600A - Application for Advance Processing of Orphan Petition) to send off to Immigration so they can grant us permission to adopt an orphan. We were waiting for the approval from our social worker to go ahead and send it in, and of course, that came while Jerry was in Bolivia. The catch was that the fees for the process go up on Monday...it's only a couple of hundred dollars, but any little bit helps! So we wisked Jerry away from the airport and drove to the nearest post office that had late Saturday afternoon hours, and made it with about 15 minutes to spare.

Please pray that our paperwork goes through Immigration without any hitches, and that they grant us permission to adopt. Without it, we go no further.
