Thankful Thursday

We got police clearances!!!   Our local police station took matters into their own hands and did the check themselves and typed up our police clearances.

Except....

They knew we were adopting from Ghana, so they put a big statement at the top: "For Ghana consulate only."

The only thing is, it's not the Ghana consulate that needs it, it's the U.S. government. We didn't realize the error till after we brought the certificates home. Sigh.

We faxed them off to the social worker today (she needed to see them, too), and I think she will accept them. Please pray that tomorrow when we go to the police station, they will be willing to change it for us.

Oh, and keep praying for the birth certificate...it was supposed to be mailed to us Monday. Now that's the ONLY thing holding us up from sending the paperwork to Ghana.
