I think the U.S. requires it as well. The out of birth order depends on your agency. These girls are w/ CCI and they will let you adopt out of birth order. <br /><br />A friend of mine is starting a fund for these girls to help anyone who might be interested but might lack the funds or be intimidated by the fundraising. I hope we can contribute some too...if their forever family ends up needing it. Thank you for praying for them! <br /><br />(I am adopting through CCI so I have "known" these girls since October.)The Sandersonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10830751604031344646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7893097126776917798.post-80829584151823448892011-03-15T19:24:33.797-07:002011-03-15T19:24:33.797-07:00Anyone know how stringent Ethiopia is about the $1...Anyone know how stringent Ethiopia is about the $10,000 per member of the household thing? And what about adopting out of birth order? Is there any kind of reduced fee for these girls to try to encourage those who might be intimidated by the cost of two kid adoption but would love to open their home to these girls, esp since they have been waiting for over a year.Jessihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10683036289606128615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7893097126776917798.post-14860243666613868872011-03-15T13:09:07.775-07:002011-03-15T13:09:07.775-07:00I met these girls in July 2010 when in ET to get o...I met these girls in July 2010 when in ET to get our son.

I will continue to pray for them and spread the word :O(. I'm pretty sure that they are at the same orphanage that I am fund raising for right now, so that makes my heart break even more for them - if that's even possible :O(.<br /><br />And as always, ADORABLE pictures!!!Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00582858289973928326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7893097126776917798.post-55309556568793916732011-03-15T03:07:03.895-07:002011-03-15T03:07:03.895-07:00Oh girl.

Our family has been praying for them for SO LONG. My 5 year old daughter will ask every now and then if "B" and "M" have a family yet? Breaks my heart to keep saying "not, yet". I can't wait to meet them in a couple weeks....HOW AWESOME would it be, if I could take them a picture of their future family???? Just the thought of it THRILLS my heart! I am gonna link this post to my FB and Blog and ask others to do the same, these girls HAVE A FAMILY OUT THERE!!! Praying for them to be chosen soon!!The Sandersonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10830751604031344646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7893097126776917798.post-20254769637009272222011-03-14T20:54:10.035-07:002011-03-14T20:54:10.035-07:00wow thats a heart crushing story.wow thats a heart crushing story.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
