OH HAPPY DAY!!!!!!

So here it is the news that I have been wanting to shout out for 9 months. In January we switched into the Bulgarian adoption program. We had our home study on January 11 then started gathering the documents necessary for our dossier. We mailed out the dossier on April 16th and then the documents had to get certified ,authenticated and sealed in both countries. We were logged in on August 10th and just got the e-mail that we have been approved by the Ministry of Justice (MOJ) so there is no going back now. We are waiting for a referral yippee!!! That could take anywhere from a week to a few months. We have put in for either boy or girl age 3-7. We are hoping to know who are next child will be sooooon. This is so exciting for us because one year ago September 14 2011 we were denied by the Philippines government after having been in that program for 18 months. We had a referral for a little boy and had been waiting for our approval so we could travel and bring him home and when it didn't happen we were devestated. We were going to call him William. But God has redeemed the time and we are approved and moving forward. Can't wait to see and know who the next Conklin will be.
