Hi Friends and family!
I have no adoption news but I do think Mike is in Haiti this week. This usually means new photos! I did send off a package to Via so that was a nice way to reach out to her.
Miles for the week:
Becker family 22
Braun Family 20
C Hiddleston 15
Total so far is 137!
We are almost to KC to visit Jackie!
I am not going to update the runners chart because I am working on creating a map that we can draw our miles on!
Love to all!

Cardio Posting 1/19
A busy week of Cardio for all our friends and family...
We have miles from Carl and Kathy, Cristina, Thomas, Amy and the Becker girls.
Our total this week is 53 miles!
I am updating the cardio log as well so you will be able to click the link and see how far we have come.
We are mailing our first package to Vialancia this week: stickers, coloring pad and some homemade cards. Not a lot but it feels good to connect in some way. Soon Holt will tell her about us!
Take Care,
Amy

A bit of news...
Today our lovely wonderful social worker got us some information! Our file was delivered to Ministry of Justice the first week of December and HOLT knows that our file is currently in the President's Cabinet. That doesnt mean he will do anything with it soon, but it means he has to some time. At least that is what I am telling myself.
Mike Noah at HOLT and Celeste think that we really have at least 10 months before our doll will come home. This is a long wait on top of a long wait, but at least they are talking about a time frame.
As always, expect the unexpected and nothing is easy, but today was a day of news and part of it was good. So I call that positive!
Much Love Everyone!

Cardio Miles 1/11
Hey! I am back to working out after 5 weeks off and 2 months of having to tone down what I wanted to do. It felt great to be back at the Y and I plan to hit Lifetracks at school this week.
The Becker girls had basketball this week and Thomas ran too. So the Becker clan is logging 12 miles this week. We hope to nearly double this for next week.
Our friend Cristina added 15. So we have traveled 27 miles.
What have you all done?
Log on soon!

Presidential Dispensation
Hello Family and Friends-
I wanted to post here that I have asked HOLT to let me know what the time frame and steps are for getting the presidential dispensation that is being required for our file. We were in the Court phase and now we have been bumped out to go get the presidential sign off. I didnt get a time frame but I did get the steps the file must go through. I am copying them in here... read on only if you are prepared for some disappointment. I dont see how all these steps can be accomplished quickly.
1) The Civil Court gives the case back to the agency/lawyer handling the case.
2) The agency/Lawyer hands the case into the MOJ.
3) The MOJ then gives the file to the office of the President for him to sign off on it.
4) The office of the President then gives it back to the MOJ.
5) The MOJ then gives the file back to the agency/lawyer.
6) The agency/lawyer then hands the case back to the Civil Court.
7) The Civil Court then processes the case as usual.
On a positive note... are you logging cardio miles? let me know!
