Lost!!

Our first major snag happened this week. For over a month we have been waiting on our final packet back from the Secretary of State. It had four documents inside - they were the last to be sent because they have been the hardest to get completed. For example - my health physical exam form sat on my doctor's desk for a month. All four documents are things like that.

I called late last week to check with the SOS office to find out if there was some kind of problem. The check had cleared a couple of weeks ago, so I knew they had received it. She looked up our account number and told me it had been mailed priority mail back to us on November 17th. The SOS office is in Austin, so we should have received it on the 18th or 19th. She then checked to make sure it had not been returned to them - it hadn't. I called the Post Office and was told there was nothing they can do without a tracking number - and it was not in a holding box in our name. I will call the SOS office back tomorrow and ask if they have a tracking number.

In the mean time - please pray with us. God knows the location of the packet. Worst case we will have to start back at square one and get those four forms filled out again - because they have to be originals. Thank you so much for all of your support. It means so much to us when you ask how things are going - and to know that you are praying for us!
