Hello everyone,
It feels strange being back on the blog after these few weeks at home. We just want everyone to know that our court date is Feb. 25! We fly out on Feb. 21. Look for more blog entries starting (hopefully) on the 23rd or 24th. We are trying to stay calm as we pack and wrap up details here at home. This trip is bittersweet - we get to see Emma again, but we won't be able to bring her home yet. We have to wait out the post-court appeals period of 15 days, and then additional birth certificate and passport processing days. Our agency estimates we won't be able to return for the final trip to bring Emma home until Easter weekend. If will be an awful wait, but then again if it's true - what a wonderful Easter gift for us all!
Your thoughts and prayers are appreciated as we hold our breath waiting to hear the judge say "Yes!" to our adoption of Emma.
Blessings to all, and please post comments to the blog often - it is an amazing comfort to us to hear from you.
Anne and Jim
