I just heard from our agency that they did mail our dossier off to Bulgaria Friday afternoon via Fed Ex. It should be there in 8 days. Please pray that everything is in order and that we will have a referrel within 12 months. It would be wonderful to be able to bring our son home next Christmas.
I will be following other blog's of families who are adopting from Bulgaria and post their blogs when I see some referrels coming in. So far nothing is happening I believe because Bulgaria is still catching up from previous dossiers submitted in 2007 (not many submitted in 2007 thankfully for those of us waiting).
A lot of families are going the Bulgaria route because of Guatemala being closed, China's wait is 3 years for a child and Kazakstan is having issues as well right now. Russia seems to be a good program if you have over $40,000 (which we don't) and Korea (but they only have a certain number of children available each year assigned to each agency so it closes quickly). Ethiopia is another country that many people are starting to adopt from because of the travel time, cost and age of children. For those of you adopting check out Adoption Forums there is quite a bit of chatter on there if you need info about different countries and agencies.
Ephesians 3:20 "Now unto Him who is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us."

Thanks for telling us about the programs. Interesting. How old of a child are you hoping to adopt?
