hip hip hooray

What a good week!

Melia had her spring performance at school. Okay, how cute is it to watch 3 and 4 year olds sing! They did a great job. Kylie sang right along with her big sister from the audience.

Melia has recently started this I-am-nervous-put-my-fingers-in-my-mouth-thing. For a mom who is pretty much a germ freak - this is soooo not cool. She said she loved being up on stage and boy did she know all the words and movements to the songs.

Is she a little Josh or what!

The other EXCITING NEWS is that on Friday we drove up the highway to our adoption agency's office in Portland and turned in our DOSSIER!!!!!

Documents in hand. Melia started chanting, "Jo-Jo, Jo-Jo". It was such a great moment.

(FYI Jo-Jo is the nickname for our son... No real name for him yet.)

All God's Children International. Isn't it a cute office! Such a fun neighborhood too.

Since Josh was working, my mom offered to go with us.

I definitely have the best momma on the planet.

Someone's excited!

No trip to AGCI would be complete without a celebratory

dinner at one of our family's favorite places to eat.

Flexing our adoption muscles!

We are on our way folks! Our case worker will now review our dossier and make sure all is done correctly. It will take up to a month and then be sent to the Rwandan government. I pray for my boy everyday. I think about him all the time. Is he born yet? What does he look like? Is someone loving on him right now? Would you please stop and say a quick prayer for him.
