Well after waiting five days in Delhi for T's article 23 letter to be issued we found out that the Embassy had not even sent her papers over. Our visa interview was on Monday, granted there were 2 holidays this week but still  the papers had not been sent. Luckily our friends who were also trying to get their article 23 encouraged us to go down to the office with them. The office - hard to find but luckily our friend's driver found it! Good thing we went there when we did, it was then that we found out that they hadn't received any paperwork. I burst into tears. The very nice Indian lady started to say " don't cry, don't panic, everything has a solution, don't cry over a piece of paper, take a chill pill--she said more but I was so distraught. I woke up this morning feeling sick, Mike was sick the day before and we miss our other daughter a lot so feeling like we couldn't leave was very overwhelming. Our friends were so kind they stayed with us and helped us through the paperwork issues and brainstorming on what to do and who to call. I am so appreciative of their help throughout this trip and especially today. The Indian lady returned to tell us that the Embassy was sending someone to deliver all the paperwork. We then had a lovely chat about adoption she was very kind and encouraging. An hour went by, still nothing we continued to wait and sit in this small room anxiously waiting to hear of our paperwork arrival. Some time later she came out and said why dont' you go back to your hotel get some lunch and then return--first i can't eat I'm feeling like I'm going to puke, second what if this guy doesn't show up with our paperwork. We took her advice I went back and retrieved our court order from our room safe, texted our caseworker frantically- poor thing it was 1 am for her. Mike returned with all of the needed papers/info but the man from the embassy did show up and our papers were being processed! Mike then had to go to the embassy- which requires securtiy checks etc. and he retrieved our daughter's visa packet!  So we can board the first of many flights home! If all goes as planned we will be touching down in the US Sunday! I've really enjoyed our time in India but I'm so excited to see our family. Thanks for sharing in this amazing journey with us.
