COURT DATE!

Today we got a call that we have been given a court date! We will meet our new son on October 19!! We were so excited and had already come to the conclusion that it would be after court closures!

This first trip will be very short. We will get to Ethiopia on Saturday night and fly home on Tuesday! We will have a few times that we will get to spend with "M". I can't wait to hold him and kiss his chubby cheeks! We will have to go to court to give our consent to adopt him, then head home to wait for a visa appointment. Hopefully it will only be a few short weeks, and then we will head back to bring him home!

I have had the priviledge of talking with one of the other families that we will be traveling with. This is a special bond that we will share and I can't wait to meet them in person. I know that God is already planning and ordering our steps....including those we will share it with!

So, once again....we wait! But now we have a countdown and can begin marking days off our calendar!!
