Halleluijah! Thank you God! We are approved!!

Who would have ever thought that we would have been riding in a boat at the mouth of the Nile River when the attorney called to tell us that we had been approved. We were all so excited and relieved. Now what? Well we go the attorney's office in the morning to pick up the stamped approval and then from there we go to the US Embassy on monday morning to drop off our paperwork and then we go back on monday afternoon at 2:00 for our official interview. 
 We are having a fun field trip to Jinja today and are actually eating lunch at the Jinja Hotel on the Nile!
 Wow I have forgotten I was in Africa. We are eating a buffet lunch (still traditional african food) but by a pool and it is gorgeous. I am typing this while a monkey eats my trail mix off the ground about 5 inches from my feet. Derrick and Edith on on the swings so it feels safe. Actually it just ate out of my hand. That was amazing.


Ok back to my initial reason for blogging. I am so thankful that this part is behind us. Now comes the hard part- parenting these two precious children. It was so special when we got the call because both kids were in my lap and Edith at least knew what was going on and she was so excited.
