LET THE WAITING BEGIN

Here's the good news! Our Dossier should be in Colombia as we speak. According to my agency ICBF has set a goal of reviewing all dossiers within 8 weeks of receiving them rather than the 4-5 months it was taking. However, I am not holding my breath since I know the best of intentions are some times not always as attainable as we think. Therefore, I am planning on hearing something by mid April; giving them three months... Until then I will be praying that none of our paperwork needs to be redone and that Chris's cancer (cancer free for 2 years 5 mos now) is not an issue. We did have a very strong letter from his radiologist stating that there was a very slim chance of it ever returning. You know how it goes... they can never state 100%.


So I have realized that I shouldn't promise pictures and not post them:) Our computer is down again!!! This is the fourth time in 3 months so they have finally decided that they will replace it.

So the termoil is over:)

This will be a short post, but thought I would give a quick update on the paperwork debacle. After complaining about how everything was falling apart, it is coming back together again (why does that sound like humpty dumpty?). I am traveling to Columbus tomorrow to finish up my dossier and get it to Colombia. It is a good thing to have a flexible boss and offices where I need them. I don't even have to take a vacation day!!!


I will try to post some pictures later tonight from our holiday festivities.
