We found out about a week ago that adoptive families are now being asked to complete a psychological battery of tests due to the recent death of an adoptive child at the hands of his father.
We are actually grateful that the country did not completely shut down international adoption, but this is frustrating as we know it will delay us even more.
We have been hearing rumors of delays getting in with a psychologist, expensive evaluations, and delays due to the time required to process and translate the test results.
We were hoping we would be getting ready to travel by now, so this is not fun news.
Jonah is growing up. We're so grateful he has a foster family to love and protect him, but being away from him is indescribably difficult.
Prayers, as always, are much appreciated. As far as we know, we don't get to start the countdown to 4-6 months yet... Even when the answer is "wait", it sure does help to hear how long...
