February 7 Update

Hello everyone,

Sorry it has been awhile since we last posted.  Honestly, there hasn't been much going on.  We did get the baby's room completed for the most part.  There are just a few finishing touches left.  We are very pleased with how the room turned out and hope baby Held will be happy with his/her room.  


January was a very slow month for referrals.  It was partly due to the fact that Christmas in Ethiopia falls in January versus December and our agency moving into a larger care center.  We did get some hope this week as there as been three referrals that we are aware of.  Dave believes there will be a few more this week.  We hope this is a sign that things are moving along again.


We are now starting the process of finding a daycare.  We hope to call on some places soon as well as visit a few of them.  It is going to be difficult as we do not know the age nor the time of year that our child will begin going to daycare.  We hope that the facilities in town have dealt with this before and will be somewhat flexible.  If you have any advise on what we should look for or questions that we should ask, please send them our way.  We obviously want to find the best one for our child.


Take everyone and stay warm (it is extremely cold here in Fargo),

Theresa
