Dossier-check

Our Dossier has left us and is on it's way to Ethiopia. It has several stops to make. First it will be going to our courier service in Washington D.C. then it will be authenticated (a process that makes it legal in other countries as well as here). Next to the Ethiopian Embassy, they do something to it-not sure what. After it's week long trip in D.C. it will be mailed to our Agency in North Carolina. They will review it and abroad it will go. After it's long flight over the Atlantic it will be translated into Amharic (the language Micah and Hannah used to know but have now forgotten). Then it will go before the judge as evidence that we are the perfect family for our Aggie. Once the judge says yes, it can go to sleep in a file somewhere in Ethiopia, it will be very tired.
