This past week we had a day that we just couldn't believe was happening. Amazing how one day could change so much.
This week a new law went into effect that Ethiopia is cutting adoptions by 90%. Making the number of adoptions go from about 50 to 5 a day.
Robbie and I have a huge decision lying ahead of us. We are at a unique point to either intercede the paperwork that is in Washington DC now and get some of our money back.... or send the paperwork over and trust this is going to blow over (the ruling will be repealed).
Our hearts are heavy... it's been a long journey. We have invested time, emotions and fiances into this.
It's sad on so many different levels... these kids will not wait years for a good home.
Just pray for us as we have to make a decision in the next two weeks.
We are considering all of our adoptions and have even reached out to a few of you for guidance (which has been SO helpful).
Once we have a decision we will let you know.
It's been a long week, of tears...
Robbie and Alisen
