Another step in the right direction!

It seems like months ago that our papers were submitted to the court, when in reality it was just 4 days ago. We received another mini update from our agency today. I can’t tell you how even the smallest updates sooth our nerves. It is like craving chocolate and getting just ONE Hershey’s Kiss – it is just enough to take the edge off! (o: So here is the latest info…

Our dossier (that is the fancy name for all of our paperwork) was submitted to court. The judge was assigned and has already reviewed our documents. Right now our documents are being reviewed by the prosecutor's office. Once that is done we should find out the court date. Our agency still believes that our court date will be sometime in April. Our first documents to expire are our medicals. If you remember they cannot be more than three months old. The three month mark is on April 24th. Hopefully we are looking at a date prior to the 24th.

Enjoy the upcoming weekend. Amy and Tatiana should be returning home from Vlad. We have been praying for safe travels for them and also for Nancy and her family. They head out for Vlad tomorrow. We get to head to Cedar Rapids, IA to Madison’s dance competition, and we will be taking my niece along with us. I am excited to spend time with her. Thanks for all of your continued support. We are especially thankful for our amazing prayer warriors. We appreciate you all so much! Have a blessed weekend!

Glad to hear you got a little information. Something is better than nothing. We can only imaginewhat you are going through. It has been hard enough to wait to leave for our first trip to see our kiddos. We leave on 04/04 for our first trip. We are going to Vlad. We will keep our fingers crossed for you that you get a court date real soon!
