Upon receiving these news, I went ahead yesterday and changed our travel plans ... we now will be flying Ethiopian Airlines from DC (our itinerary is Atlanta-DC-Addis) and will be staying at Melkam Guest House. Again, nothing that I can confirm until I get the green light from our agency and the paperwork from CIS.
On another note, I was "studying" Nyla's pictures as I so often do - just stare at them and looking at every little detail (is that obsessive compulsive or what ... lol) and just be amazed, overjoyed, sad, excited, happy, scared, nervous ..... all feelings in one ..... isn't that crazy - and just looking at the pictures I realized that in these only two pictures where Nyla's with other kids in the pictures she is always the one hugging .... I love it .... I can't wait to meet my little girl and hold her in my arms forever and just be her momma!

:) I'm happy but also nervous for you. I'll be hoping that things get to where they need to be in time and you can be there with Nyla ASAP.
Praying for you!!! A week early is SO exciting!!!
(The boy peeking thru is my other son, Collin. He is constantly photobombing our pics!!!)
Hi Alida,
Your daughter is so beautiful!
I'll be praying for a smooth process for you guys.
So amazing to see Nyla w/ Biscuit! SO precious!
Sam is like that...such a hugger and kisser. I love love love it and just cannot get enough. When he hugs he gives this little pat-pat on your back! Sigh!
So glad your appt got moved up. I'm sure everything w/ USCIS will work out.
PS: love that new picture of Jalen! His hair is so much like Sammy's! Or rather, Sammy's hair is like Jalen's.
she is so cuuuute!!!
