Kyrgyz officials also met yesterday to discuss the future of adoptions from that country.
Today is a holiday in Kyrgyzstan, so we're not sure when we'll hear anything about that meeting, but we are praying that whatever is done is done soon and is best for the children of the 65 families who have already accepted referrals and are waiting for the paperwork to start moving.
To celebrate, we had ice cream:
Birthday Ice Cream
