Today our agency called us and left a message saying she had some great news. Since the government is still shut down, I didn't expect it to be anything that great, but I was wrong!
We have a court date!!!
We will be traveling the beginning of September to meet our son, JUDE! This means we have a lot to plan and less than a month to do it. We are very excited, but overwhelmed at the same time!
Andrew, Chapel and I will be in Uganda for several weeks, then one of us will stay for the remainder of the time. Past families have been there a total of 12 weeks. We would greatly appreciate prayers that we would find favor with everyone we come in contact with who will be handling our adoption, especially judges and government officials. We are praying that it will all be finalized much quicker than 12 weeks and that our family of 5 will all be together for Thanksgiving...if not MUCH earlier!
