# 7! That's right, we're number seven on "the list!" Their are officially 6 families ahead of us wating for their referral. The referral, just incase you don't know, is when you get a picture as well as medical history and any other information, of your child. You choose at that time if you want to accept your referral. After you accept, you have to pass 2 court dates in Ethiopia (I think it's 2). Once you pass court you are officially the legal parents and you may fly over there and bring your child home. Also, I don't think I have made mention that our orphanage in Ethiopia is out of formula. Their is a "formula crisis" in ET right now and MANY infants are going without. I spent some time crying about this until I realized, God is bigger. If he can turn water into wine..... you know the rest! Meanwhile some amazing waiting families have coordinated a "drop off" of formula from us, the waiting families. It should be there in mid-march. God continues to provide and work details out, a big thanks to all of the people donating to the cause!
