We are going to Latvia!!
It was not an easy decision to make but after a few weeks of evaluating
pros and cons, we switched. We did join
an agency which is great to work with an experienced staff. We are currently gathering up all the new paperwork
needed for Latvia. We only need our
revised homestudy report and our BCI back and we can submit to the
translators. We have already been told
of two sibling sets available. These kids are so adorable!!
I put a map on this blog because, if you are like me, when I
first hear of this country, you may not know where it is located.
Below are some fun facts about Latvia
1.The national flag is one of the oldest flags in the world. It dates back to the 13th century. The legend says, a Latvian leader was wounded in battle, and the edge of the white sheet in which he was wrapped was stained by his blood. This sheet was carried into several battles afterwards, making it the flag we see today.

help Latvians be on time for work.
