Today we received another letter from ICBF, which brings a smile to my face as it is always addressed to Allan Crosby and Linda Nikander.  Close, real close.  They are only missing three names between the two of us…… and two pretty important ones, but I’m sure we’ll clear that all up in-country.  We have an official correction to our approval for a girl between 5 and 6 years old as of June 25, 2009.  (That only took six months!)  That is a much anticipated improvement from our last letter which granted “dos hermanos” between 5 and 9 years.  (Two boys!  Can you imagine?)

The other bit of news in the letter which came as a pleasant surprise is it seems we were originally approved in January of 2008, not February.  So we moved up a month on the wait list.  Woooo Hoooooo!  I did call our case worker today and let her know that if she wanted to call with our referral today we are wide open for that.  Just trying to be helpful.
