the silence is broken

We hadn't heard anything at all from Liberia for 2 days, and we were pretty discouraged. Tonight we learned that several passports were signed today!! We don't know who they are for, but they'll be picking them up tomorrow morning and letting families know during the day. We're selfishly hoping they're for Joshua and Patience, but we're just thrilled that they signed passports... no matter who they are for.

We're headed to Virginia in the morning to spend Friday and Saturday with Arlan, Marcy, and their new addition, Ari. We're looking forward to escaping the current busyness and relaxing with good friends for a short while, but we'll make sure we carve out time to let you know if we hear about passports!
