To say that our process has gone slow is an understatement. A BIG HUGE UNDERSTATEMENT!!!!!!
To recap, we got NOC July 17th. Expected wait time after that is 30-45 days each for guardianship and passport. Most people get ICPC (in the US while waiting on passport) in 3 weeks.
We waited 149 days for guardianship and have waited 41 for passport so far and are expecting another 6-7 days before it is issued. It has been 197 days since NOC was issued. UNBELIEVABLE !!!!!!
I just found out that North Carolina lost our ICPC paperwork. I had to get Oklahoma to resend our papers to North Carolina. ARGGGGG!!!!!!
We had hoped to travel January 23rd. Of course, we are still here waiting. We then hoped to leave February 5th. We then got an email saying that Ananya's passport would not be issued until February 5th. I am about to go crazy with all the waiting again. I hope we can leave February 12th. But we are waiting for 2 large things that we can't leave if we don't get it.
We learned today that the family that just came home got to actually see Ananya. :o) They said she was a little scared of them at first but warmed after a few minutes.
Please pray that God makes the transition as easy as possible for her. She may have a rough transition for having the Ayahs care for her for so long. She needs everyones prays right now.
We hope to hear good news soon. I will keep everyone posted if we receive any news.

Amanda,
My heart goes out to you. I know how tough the wait is...especially when you are so, so close. Hang in there...it won't be much longer.
Our prayers are with you. We'll say a special prayer just for Ananya.
Nadra
