Only 3 more days...

Until we find out if we passed court or not. Huge request for prayers on Thursday. Our court is the 11th but since Ethiopia is 8 hours ahead of us our court will probably happen sometime while we sleep.

Who am I kidding there will be no sleep for me. It's gonna be a long week.

On top of court we also have two birthday parties for Lawson. One Friday night with the family and then a friend sleep over Saturday night. Not sure what I was thinking!
Let's just say our weekend will be VERY busy. I wish it was all happening during the week so maybe it would go by faster.

There really hasn't been much news on the Ethiopian adoption front. MOWCY is still trying to cut their letters of adoption recommendation but has been met with many agencies and groups opposition. We pray they will not cut the letters down and find a better solution to the issues at hand. The Children are the ones that suffer the most. Our pain waiting here is nothing compared to theirs.
I pray "M" does not feel we abandoned him and that he knows we are coming back as soon as they let us to bring him home. We just want him home with us. To start his new life with his new forever family. Give him the love, and stability he is lacking now. Don't get me wrong the nannies at the orphanage love those kids like their own But nothing can replace a Mother and Father's love and security. I wonder what he thinks of us those two crazy Americans who colored and played soccer with him all day and who left as quick as they came. I hope he feels the connection we feel towards him. I just want to hop on a plane Africa bound to see him and show him we will be back.

So 3 days until we know if he is legally our son and can put in for am Embassy date and bring him home.
