And the next family will be...

It's been a long and busy week in the Myers family. I've had to do some travelling with work and Chris has been working tons. We are so thankful that we both still have jobs in this economy, not to mention the second most unemployed state in the US right now.

We were recently told that the Lopez family will be the next family to travel to Vietnam to bring home their son. If you don't remember, their son was the very first baby in the home and will be 3 years old in June! SO we are very happy that he will finally be able to come home. Unfortunately the province leaders are requiring a bit more paperwork from this family before they can travel. It is a bit frustrating... so no one is in country right now and apparently this province will only allow one family to travel at a time. They have been keeping the families in the province for a minimum of 10 days before preforming their G&R ceremonies. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason for their madness. The last baby home was the youngest and the next one out is the oldest... Maybe they line them up and play musical chairs... the winner gets to finally go home.

Sorry, I seem a bit sarcastic. But dealing with no system and quite a few people that don't care about your situation or your child's for 3 years now, has finally gotten to me!

On another note. We are SO incredibly thankful for this Easter weekend. We are here, and we live for Him who lived and died for us. This weekend we can celebrate that we won't only have Dillen for our lifetime but for eternity because of what Christ has done for us.
