November is National Adoption Awareness Month and I've seen quite a few blogs "going purple" for November! Floating all across blogland, is a logo created by Elle. I went over to her website and read all about it. So, here I am in blogland with a very, very purple blog (Thanks, Elle!). :-) Happy National Adoption Awareness Month, everyone! Let's hope things keep moving so more and more of us can bring home our kiddos.
**FRUA Rumor Alert! If you are trying to stay away from accreditation rumors in order to maintain some level of sanity, stop reading here! And no, I'm nowhere near sane.**
Speaking of which.... the FRUA chat board is HOPPING with some news. So far, two agencies are reporting that the MOI (Ministry of Internal Affairs) has sent a letter to the MOE (Ministry of Education) telling them that the signatures on the accreditation documents IS valid and acceptable. To recap, rumor has it a lower level official at the MOI signed off on accreditation documents and it was questioned as to whether or not he/she should have the authority to do so. Soooo... that being said, IF those rumors are true then at least 2 agencies are a few weeks away from having their accreditation certificate in hand! As with everything accreditation-rumor-related, take it all with a grain of salt. ANYTHING can happen.
We haven't heard anything from our agency... mums the word until their certificate is in hand, which I can respect. Thankfully, other agencies share news and people post them on FRUA. Otherwise we'd all be very much in the dark. :-)
I don't have much energy to type anything else tonight. I don't know about y'all but it's been a LONG week so far. Maybe it's because the time is changing this weekend or the temperature has gotten colder or because it's dark when you wake up and dark when you get home... not sure what but boy oh boy... I'm ready for that extra hour of sleep this weekend!
Oh and the teenager broke up with the girlfriend (you probably heard me cheering from wherever in the US you are) and has moved on to another... ahhh... to be young again. So far, the new one has met my minimum requirements and scrutiny, which is not easy to do. Maybe this will be a "long-term" relationship and last more than 3 weeks. :-)
Night!

P.S. HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Thanks for the support!
Thanks for your encouragement on my blog - yep, just waiting for that court date! I saw the FRUA buzz today, too, and I sure hope things start moving for you soon. Goodness knows the waiting gets brutal....
And thanks for the tip-off, btw...I had no idea November is Adoption Awareness Month! I'm not sure exactly what that means, but I'm all about purple. :-)
Yeah! I hope it is true and that CHI is one of them! I can't sleep these days. Even though we don't leave until next Sat. I am still all keyed up and just can't let myself to bed before 11:30. I took a nap today to compensate. It lasted 25 minutes.
Hi! Love the purple. I really really hope that your agency is one of them!!
Everything here is going great as you can tell from the blog. Mateo is just as sweet as can be. Can't wait for you to meet him!
Love the purp!
Even though we've made the change from CHI, I hope reaccreditation comes very soon - it's in the best interest for the parents and the kids!
Happy National Adoption Month everyone! May more adopt!
It was just last year that I was reading up on those FRUA rumors- yes they were running rampid a YEAR AGO. To make you feel better... I am here one year later sane(er) with child. I hope that gives you a little hope.
I remeber waking every morning and chomping at the bits to get online to check out the new news of the day. Keep holding on- its coming!!!
Yeah for news of accreditation! Let's hope the rumor is true. As for the girlfriend situation, I'm glad you are getting some experience to share with me when the time comes. I'm like you....no dating until your 30!
I saw the FRUA rumors too. I'm praying that they are true and I'm pretty sure our agency is one of those that has the signatures. I'm just happy to see some progress!
I am hoping and praying. I will keep my fingers.
Joy
