In this photo taken on May 9, 2014, Michael Fichera and Linda Scotto with their two daughters Emma, 11, and 6-year-old Kearly, pose with a photograph of their adopted Congolese daughter, Miriam, at their home in Doylestown, Pa. The adoption process by the couple was virtually completed by the fall of 2013 and they were getting ready to travel to Congo when a suspension was imposed. Miriam, has continued to live in an orphanage; she'll turn 9 in August. After nearly two years of frustration, several hundred American families now have reason to hope that children they are adopting from Congo may finally be allowed to travel to the United States.
