I don't know if the DCSF read my blog or if shouting at them this afternoon worked or what?!?! But I have FINALLY received the magical email containing the information I need to book DHL to send our dossier to Ethiopia!!!! Our dossier should be there by Monday!!!!!
Its not quite sunk in yet!!! Someone pinch me and make sure I'm not dreaming!!!
What a difference an email can make :-)

Hi Rosie,
Perhaps it was the yelling or perhaps it was the crying while I was on the phone yesterday! Perhaps it was even the threat of contacting the Director General!! But at least something finally worked!!
It has been mega mega stressful this last year going through all this again, and many times I've been convinced that we wouldn't be allowed to continue. But finally we are on the home straight and live seems so much brighter again :-)
We could hear something almost immediately or we could wait a month or two, it all depends on who is in the orphanage. We can travel on the first trip pretty quickly, as soon as we get the ok from our LA and the DCSF. Then we have to wait for our assigned Court Date, and that is taking about 12 weeks at the moment. I think that is going to be the longest 12 weeks of my life :-( I am dreading going meeting our new little one and then having to leave her and come home without her for that length of time :-(
Love
Janet
