We FedExed our remaining dossier items to Oregon where they will be sent out to the Philippines on Monday. Yippee!!!
We've completed and will FedEx the I-800A form to the US government on Monday a.m. It's great when another load of paperwork goes out the door. Makes it feel like Lucas and Eli are that much closer to home.
Eli celebrated his 8th birthday on Thursday. If all goes well maybe it will be the last time either of our boys celebrates a birthday with just each other.
Watching the world news, the Philippines is experiencing problems in the areas near the boys' orphanage. There's a possiblity that if we recieve ICAB (Inter Country Adoption Board) approval from our dossier that Lucas & Eli will be moved into a foster home closer to Manilla. As much as we'd love to see and experience the area where they've lived for the last 5 years we're not sure how it would affect our travel plans. Sydney our 16 year old will be traveling with us and taking her into an area with a terrorist threat is not a viable idea. Holt says they never send anyone into this particular region so we will wait and see.
