Court date

We got an email from our social worker this morning stating that we have a court date for June 7!! We are praying that we will pass court the first time! When we pass court, our little girl will legally be ours! Then we wait to travel for an embassy appointment which is usually 1-2 months after court. Really hoping all this happens quickly!!

Once!!

Our social worker called on Friday to let us know that we beat the deadline and will only have to travel once to Ethiopia! This is a huge answer to prayer and a big relief! Now we wait for a court date and hopefully we will pass court on the first try. Sometimes things don't come together and families don't pass court on the first try, but we're hoping for the best!! Families usually travel about 6 weeks after they pass court. I'm hoping to have her home before August, but we shall see!!

Once or twice...

That is the question. By the end of this week we should know if we will have to travel once or twice to Ethiopia. Praying that it is only once, but we'll see. If we end up going twice we will be one of the first families to have to do this, so it will be a learning experience for everyone! Kinda scary! Oh well, by Friday hopefully we will hear some news!! I'm having a garage sale next week to help raise some money for our travel expenses, so if anyone has items they would like to donate, let me know!!
