Waiting, Waiting and More Waiting


All we seem to be doing is waiting for something to happen. If things don't get moving soon, that is how I will look when we do get Jacob.


The JCICS did announce this news this week.


As part of the Joint Council International Relations Initiative, we are honored to host a 9-member delegation from Vietnam from March 24th through April 2nd. The delegation, led by Vice-Minister of Justice Dinh Trung Tung, will attend the Joint Council Conference and Institutes, meet with adoptive families and participate in a planned series of meetings with leaders in U.S. child welfare and government agencies.


With a goal of advancing the relationship and understanding between the peoples and governments of the United States and Vietnam, this visit will include an exchange of information on the Hague Convention and child protections along with discussions on key elements of and opportunities for an interim agreement. Joint Council looks forward to learning of Vietnam’s plans in these very important areas.


There was more but this is the important part. Our agency thinks that this is a very good thing and will go a long way in helping with a new agreement.


Nothing else much new with us. We are on Spring Break today and tomorrow. Saturday, we have an academic competition.
