100% Approved


A few weeks ago our 4 1/2 year old niece informed James and I that if we were going to have a baby girl, we needed to buy her a coloring book. Well, in hopes of being approved this week, I picked one up. AND...we found out today that Kazakhstan has officially approved the Letterneau family to adopt a baby girl! We are thrilled. As we reported earlier, things become terribly inefficient during the summer months so we may still be about 10 weeks from traveling. Our approved paper work is now in the region in which we will be traveling. We cannot share where this is yet but we are excited about traveling to this specific region. We've heard great things about it and about the health of the children that come out of it. We are so thankful for getting to this point. We are anticipating the next month or two to be slow but who knows...HE could surprise us :-) Thanks for the continued prayers for things to keep moving along smoothly.

Wow! Congrats. Perfect timing too, Sawyer needed a best-friend. Can't wait to meet her.
