We Passed!

This morning, our case manager called to share the wonderful news that we passed court! Isaiah is offically our son!! We are so excited and so incredibly grateful. The Lord is so faithful!
They are trying really hard to get us into the next travel group, but for that to happen all of Isaiah's paperwork will have to make it to the Embassy by next Friday, which is crazy fast. We know it can happen though! IF it did, we would leave for Ethiopia on Christmas Day! How amazing would that be! If not, we'll go sometime in January...either way we'll know something by Friday. Thank you so much for all of your prayers!! Please keep praying for the other waiting families, and especially for the Pells, another NC family who will have their 3rd court appointment next week.

Our agency encourages us not to post pictures until we are home so we will have to leave you with this little sneak peek...


Hang on sweetie, mommy and daddy will be there soon!

    Yay that you passed!
    Was hoping that y'all would be in our travel group. I know the delay is hard... especially missing your baby over the holidays.
    I would be more than happy to check in on your little guy (and even get a picture of his little bed at Hannah's Hope for you if I can)--just send me his details (I think my email address is on the listserv)
