Discouraged

We can't get any answers from our agency. I've e-mailed or called them almost every day for the last month and nothing's happened. They told me our dossier would be going to the placement agency this week, but that never happened. I have to ask and ask to get anything. When I expressed my frustration, they were snippy. What are they doing?!

Ethiopia!

We have decided to adopt from Ethiopia. Everything just felt right, even though we ran into a lot of opposition about our decision. We've read about the country, the people, read adoption stories, and she's there. Now we're frustrated with our agency because they have all of our dossier paperwork, but still haven't changed the home study. I've joined a blog group online and I'm learning tons. We thought we may have her escorted from Ethiopia, but now we're thinking we should go and see where she came from and see the country. I got a catalogue the other day with the cutest girls' clothes in it. It's all I can do not to buy a bunch of stuff right now. I've been obsessively looking at videos of families picking up their children from Ethiopia. They make me cry!
