We have been cleared by the embassy! It was completely unexpected! What a great suprise this morning. We are praying we get to head out of town in the next couple of days! We will have to see what happens in getting us an embassy interview! We just are beside ourselves with excitement!
Please continue to pray though! We have 3 sets of friends who we traveled with back in July who are still waiting and working to bring their babies home. Having been there and seen others get to bring their kids home, it's hard. Pray for peace for them as well as a quick resolution.
Also, finally, traveling around the holidays, travel expenses are also going to be a big higher than initially expected. If you are looking for an end of the year giving for taxes, and you so desire, you can send tax deductible donations directly to West Sands for us. Just put a note in the envelope that the money is to be credited to our account (Dan and Tara Simmons). Their address is: West Sands Adoptions, 1240 East 100 South #1, St. George, UT 84790
We thank you in advance for any help you may be willing or desiring to give.
All we can say now is YAY!!!

PRAISE GOD FROM WHOM ALL BLESSINGS FLOW!!!! Thank you God for reminding us thorough all this that you love and care for us- even when we fail to see your hand, it is guiding us! Praying for smooth travel, a large financial blessing to cover what God knew you would need and of a smooth adjustment for all of you.
YEH! I just new you two would get this marvelous Christmas gift (before presents are supposed to be opened)soon! I am so happy for you all. We don't always understand God's timing but it seems to always be what is needed. Joyce Landoff use to speak a great deal about "being in the waiting room of God" a kind of time as raw ore being refined! May God give you safe travel and let me know when you will be coming through the Denver airport on your way home so I and Paul can see our newest grandsons! Love, Dad
So happy to hear the news. Have a safe trip and a Merry Christmas with those 3 special little boys. How full and BUSY your life will be from now on.
