Finally Started
Well, our journey to Ethiopia officially began March 8, 2007. We had been accepted to Children's Hope International and begun our homestudy process in summer of 2006, but went on hold throughout the fall, feeling as though we had no clear direction on which country program we should join. Finally, in January, our interest was peaked as we read about the new Ethiopia program in which CHI was getting licensed. We met with our social worker, Julia, and the director of the Ehtiopia program, Sharon, in February and made our official change. Our completed homestudy was mailed off on March 8 and we are now awaiting the rest of the journey.

Hi,
I just ran across your blog. Congrats on CHI getting their license! We used them for our homestudy and have enjoyed watching them develop their Ethiopia program.
Congrulations!! You're in for a wild- and exciting- ride!
Oh, I forgot to add our website http://findingbabyg.wordpress.com
