no good news

Last night we stayed up late to call Hope Ethiopia since we haven't heard anything in about 10 weeks now. We finally talked to the secretary who speaks broken english. She was able to tell us that Liam (Tamirat) is doing great, he is very healthy and he is walking. She also told us that the paper that was needed at the court date from his birth country (the one they said was no problem to get) has still not been received. Until this form is received they cannot even file our case with the US Embassy which means after the case is filed it will be another 6-8 weeks before we can go pick Liam up. We are very upset because we thought that our case had already been filed and that we would be picking him up any day now. The agency never told us anything...no news is NOT good news in this case. We are heartbroken that we have no idea when we will get to go get Liam. We cannot get any one to call us or email us to tell us what is going on. We are going to try to call again tonight to see if we can speak to the agent that we worked with while we were there to see if he can tell us anything. The agent we have been working with in the US is out of town still so we cannot talk to him.
