'Tis a gift to be simple. Yet, somehow things are never simple in the Whitfield household. We have made the decision to adopt a child (or two!) from Ethiopia. Please check our blog from time to time for the latest in our adoption journey. Your prayers and support are always welcome!

Wait Listed!!!

WOO!! HOO!! WE'RE ON THE WAITLIST!! We just got news that all our stuff with the FBI and Homeland Security etc. has been 'authenticated,' which means we are now on the waitlist. What are we waiting for? We're now waiting for a referral from the Ethiopian government. They align us with children they think best for us, and then after that we go through more stuff legal and medical, and then we're united with our family...that's what we're waiting for!
Now this waiting game can last anywhere from four to eight months or more...so, in short, no telling! Also, during this time we won't learn much about where we are on the wait list because this is sometimes sensitive for the many families on the list. So it's the dark side of the adoption moon...to strain a metaphor!
We're excited! Thanks to all who have helped us get this far!!
