What Happens Next
We finally got our court date! In most cases, a court date is not a good thing, but in our case, it's what we've been waiting on since mid-September. And funny enough, we got the phone call just hours after the final performance of the Living Christmas Tree. Once again, God's timing is ALWAYS best.
So, what happens next? We'll fly over to Ethiopia for the court date, but while we're there, we'll do a little sight-seeing, make several trips to the orphanage to play with the kiddos (we'll know who they are, but they won't know us), scout out things to do for the second trip, attend a church service, and so on. We'll be there for about 5 days. Then, we fly back home and wait on a U.S. Embassy appointment over there, which is about 6 weeks after the court date. We'll fly back over for that with Jack and Big Mama and Nana in tow. This is the final trip and we'll bring the kids back home with us. Since the timelines have been nothing like we thought, I don't know if 6 weeks for the embassy appointment is accurate, but let's pray it is. Estimated timeframe now: April?
I wish I could post their pictures. They're beautiful. But I will post this little guy. :)
