I said I would post again, but then I didn't... sorry!! :)
So... we are really hoping to be able to send our dossier tomorrow, or even Saturday. We are waiting on 2 apostilled forms to get back from Denver and we are praying hard that they will be here by tomorrow. We mailed them Fed Ex priority overnight on Tuesday, they arrived in Denver Wednesday morning at 9:49 a.m., and from there the trail goes cold. I didn't keep track of the number for the return package (ugh, what was I thinking?!) so we really have no idea when it will be coming back. Maybe we are being overly optimistic in how fast they will get apostilled, but oh man I am really hoping!! I did send a letter asking the Secretary of State's office to expedite those 2 forms, but they don't usually do that unless you are there in person. And we really couldn't drive 7 hours to Denver to have that done, so we will see.... I had to try!!! As has been the case in our journey so far, we will probably have to wait longer than I want to, but I also know with all my heart the amazing power of God! He can make easy things take as long as He wants, and He can also make things that should take a LONG time, happen quite quickly! That is one of the many things so cool about knowing our God!
Wow!!! I cannot believe we are actually at this point in the process! This is really happening and I am trying to remember when I actually agreed to all of this!! :) That is my fear talking...
Really I am so ready to go get my girls, but yet I am scared to death! I am afraid to leave my kids, especially the little ones! I am afraid to get on that airplane and totally give up all control! As if I have any to begin with!! I guess I just think I do....
But, when I look at those little girls' faces, I know that it is all worthwhile and somehow, it will all be okay! I absolutely cannot wait to meet them!!!!! That is for sure, without a doubt, totally and with 100 percent confidence, it is true! I want to see my babies!

Psalm 139:13-16
For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.
