We are back after our Wednesday morning visit. It went well. First we went to see Jasmina who is working so hard to help us complete this adoption and I so much appreciate her work.
The center officials want an additional document before they will send to the minister for his signature...something that details Milos' development from when he first arrived at this orphanage until now. He has made improvements since he moved here almost 2 years ago, and I guess they just want this documented. Lilly, the psychologist, is writing the additional report today and it is to be faxed to them by noon....which is now our time! We don't know when they will get their ok on it and pass along to the minister, but Jasmina thinks by the end of this week it should happen. No guarantees!
We told her our "goal" was really to have him with us this weekend, and that what was disappointing with this news. So, she suggested that perhaps Milos could get a "weekend pass" to spend the weekend with us in our apartment. That is GREAT!. She made the phone calls and no one has any objections, so it looks like we will have Milos her with us for the weekend, even if he is not legally ours yet. We will visit in the morning Friday, then take him out after that visit.
And, Jasmina agreed to trade the new shoes we brought for Milos that are at least 3-4 sizes too big for the ones he is currently wearing.
We are just slowing down and enjoying this entire experience. Now, off to Pizza Hut for lunch with the Maples who have their own news to share...
