Waiting, Waiting and MORE WAITING!





We had a nice webchat with Sarah Grace several weekends ago. Sadly, the video wasn't working for them to see us. We could see us and we could see her :-) CUTE as ever. She did a great job communicating with us without even being able to see us or speak much of our language. She really must be getting used to this webchat thing. She is probably, as we are, tired of it too. It will be so nice to just be in person and give her a hug and get to know her and laugh with her. She is a very energetic and fun loving girl.

However, it turns out we are needing to wait a bit more. I keep reassuring myself that God knows what he is doing and that he is ultimately in charge of the details. . .But I'm really thinking she needs to come home! The problem that has now arisen is that since someone has claimed her as his daughter (the law in Taiwan apparently is that if you claim someone is your child and you register as their father than you legally are the father--no DNA required. . .)SO, now that she has this father registered there are legal complications for her to be classifiable as an orphan. So we wait and let the powers that be settle things. . .

We are still hoping to travel some time in October. But I'll believe that when I see it!

In the meantime we WAIT.

!!!! What is up with people! I can't believe I'm reading this. I'm sad for SG having to wait longer when you are so ready to go and get her.
