Haiti Trip -- Sept 09

Hi There,

Wow, the days in Haiti have gone fast! We have been traveling in Vera
or Barb’s car and have covered a lot of Haiti. It’s not as sunny
today so that is relief. We have been to the doctor for Islande, the
MOFA with our Psych eval, MOJ requesting Auddy’s parents archieves,
the photo place to make passport /id photos and the US consulate
several times plus lots of stops to drop off /request approval on
documents. Barb and Vera are such an improvement over the last
process that I just can’t believe the difference. They are organized
and do this systematically and write down every step they have done .
Today they had Vera, Barb and Milynn is three different vehicles
running with adoption stuff plus the had several extra runners to
stand in lines for them. Barb pulled up to the building to get IDs
and honked her horn. A guy came running out and got Islande’s
parents’ ID info. We gave him $800 haitian including ID fees (about
$20 total) and in a couple of hours we came back to check on his
progress. We were not able to file the I600 today because we still
need a new archieve for Auddy’s mom so that will be filed in January
when we come back. Pray that they get what they need so that we can
file with confidence that everything will be approved. Wow… if anybody
can get these kids out of here, it’s them!

The length of time for this trip was perfect to get done what we
could, the Lord has answered many prayers. Tom’s family has been
great! I have figured out that bugs in Haiti love me.. I am praying
that my system is strong to fight it off. Thanks to everyone who has
prayed and/or listened to this process along the way!


Many Blessings,
Tamela
