This is BIG

Two days ago, the Haitian government voted to ratify the Hague Convention. This will be a very good thing for the orphans in Haiti in the future. We don't really know what it means for our adoption at this point. Dixie's post is almost like reading a foreign language because I don't understand it all. I know that countries like China who are under the Hague Convention have very strict procedural guidelines for their adoption. Without being under the Hague, countries can pretty much do whatever and require whatever they want. I'm pretty sure that since our dossier is already in Haiti, we will be grandfathered in. We continue to hope and pray that we will receive our referral before Aug. 1st when IBESR reopens.
