We are official!

PRAISE THE LORD!!! After a roller coaster day where we weren't sure we were going to have court, we finally did! We are now the proud parents of NINE kiddos! We are heading home tomorrow. I can't wait to see our kids at home. I have missed them terribly. At the same time, I am already missing my precious L & I! I can't wait to be back to bring them home! Happy 4th of July weekend! Thank you for all the prayers and support. We are so grateful!

In limbo still...

We need continued prayers! We had hoped to have a paperwork glitch worked out today so we could have a definite court date. It didn't happen. We are still hoping and praying that God will miraculously make a way for this paperwork issue to be resolved and for the judge to hold our court tomorrow so we can go home on Saturday as planned. Please pray for us! I miss the kids at home desperately. We have never been away from them for so long, and the strain is beginning to wear on all of us at this point.

In the meantime, we have been blessed by several other American families who are also here to adopt. We have so much fun when we get together! What an amazing group! Last night we hosted "dinner and a hair cut" at our apartment. Adam was complaining about needing a hair cut, and it just so happens that one of the adoptive moms is a beautician. She brought her scissors, and we provided the dinner! It was a lot of fun and good laughs. What a blessing to go through this journey with others who understand.
