After all the paperwork, and all the "whatever", we found out yesterday that the Haitian Gov't has changed their adoption policy which states that "Adoptive parents must be married for at least 5 years, and one of the adoptive parents must be 30 years of age."
So if you check our profile, we have been married foe 3 years, I am 25, and Melissa will be 28....Cue the loosing music from The Price is Right.
We were offered a refund of our fees, however, that wasn't the point for us. We were sad, angry, fustrated that this didnt come out until now. So our option now is to choose another country...here we sit on Saturday parooooosing the net and some info that we were given to see where we want to go from here.
As soon as we find out, I guess we will be re-naming the blog. :) As it stands now, we'll call it "The End of Our Haitian Adventure".
Ciao
