Thanks Everyone,
For some of you not familiar with the Colombian process, we must go through what you know as PGN before we are placed on the waiting list. Our PGN is called the ICBF and I was in for 5 months and 1 week with 1 kickout for additional information. So now we are waiting for our referral. There are different lists based on the age and number of children you want to adopt. The wait for infants at this point would be another 18 to 24 months. Siblings I am told could be 1 to 8 months. I will know on Monday the age range and number of children they approved for us. I will let you know. Happy Mother's Day! Donna
