On Friday, August 26, 2011 our agency was informed that the Hebert family file has been approved and has passed court. Here's the e-mail we received Saturday morning,
"You DID pass court. Now the next step is to use the decree to apply for a new birth certificate. There are several steps before the case can be presented to the Embassy, but things are moving. Congratulations and have a great weekend. Merrily"
Now we can finally share with everyone our precious son as he is now legally our son! The Ethiopian courts have issued our adoption decree and all that is left to do now is wait for the new birth certificate that has our names as his legal parents and once we have that in our file, then our file is submitted to the US Embassy in Addis Ababa, we then wait for embassy to clear us for travel to bring Abraham home forever!
So here is the official announcement on this blog:
INTRODUCING ABRAHAM HEBERT
Congratulsions to all of you on this good news. We live in PA but moved here from Derry NH. We saw your adoption news on Arnita McMillans site. I'm not sure of the spelling of her name. We will keep all of you in our thoughts and prayers. God bless you all : )
