Some News...

So, there were 3 families that I know of that traveled before us and needed to get court dates before us. Of course, there could be families who are in front of us that just don't participate in the chat. What is that about?:0) I mean, don't people know we need to know everything!? Anyway, two of the 3 families got court dates yesterday and they will stand before the judge in Kras on 3/4. I am so excited! They leave a week before that which puts them pretty much at the four month mark for time between trips. This is good news! I am, however, still taking it with a grain of salt.

When I get back from Russia, I will make plans to update our medicals, get the kid's medicals renewed and sealed and I have to secure a copy of our HS agency's new license. Then, we will wait again. It appears that Kras is issuing court dates for every other Tuesday so the next available date would be 3/18 and then, 4/1...how funny would that be? April fool's day? I am praying for the 18th as we would possibly be able to take custody of her on or before her birthday.

So, not much else to update on. I am excited with these developments! Congrats to Tim and Debbie & Greg and Jeanette! Have a wonderful trip!

Update: My FC has confirmed that we would be in the next batch in the "line up" for a court date and said we should go ahead with getting the kids medicals redone earlier than mid-March (yea!) and that we should go ahead and get our medicals updated as well. In addition, our HS agency's license came in today! The old one expires on 2/20 and the new one never arrives on time. God is moving, folks...hold on tight!

Sounds like things are about to speed up for you. How exciting. I'll be praying that all the paperwork goes smoothly.

Maybe you'll hear about your court date while you're visiting Ellie.

Oh, Lori! I really do believe God is going to give you a court date soon! Keep praying and trusting that you will be with your little girl on her birthday :) I'm getting so excited for your family!
