No, There's No News...

Our internet has been rather unreliable as of late, and so we have been unable to do much online. We have, at the very least, been able to check our email. Updating the blog has not been the highest item on the list of things that need the limited amount of internet time we have had. In consequence, it's been quiet around here for the last couple of weeks.

I have been asked often over the past several days, and by many different people, if there is anything new going on. I'm not sure what is prompting this particular question from this many people, but I have had to answer "no" to all. We have no news to report.

Yes, our garden is planted and yes, it has been raining constantly for days, and yes, we are still plugging away at our schoolwork, trying to finish up for the year, but no, we have no news.

As far as the adoption goes, which is what I think most folks have in mind when asking this question, we are still collecting the necessary documents for our dossier. We need to have one particular document authenticated, which requires sending it to three different government offices to have official seals affixed to it, which involves time and a lot of visits to the post office. We hope to have all our documents prepared and sent to our adoption agency within the next couple of weeks. After that, the dossier will be sent to the Congo and we will wait for our court date for the official adoption proceedings.

So, when we do have news, we'll be sure to let you know.
