court may NOT be opening next week

I just read on the big Ethiopia board that a couple of the agencies got word that the courts will NOT re-open next Monday like planned. I will be so bummed if this is true. But what can we do? We are at the mercy of the courts right? I try so hard not to get upset, and tell myself constantly that things will work out for us. But I will not breathe easy until I have my little girl in my arms!! What can I say, I am so disapointed it's unreal. We need prayers for our family right now.

No news

Well we still have no news on little Desta (Jaiden). The courts will open back up on October 6th from what I gather, so I guess we wait until then. What else can we do? It just breaks my heart when people ask me when we are going to get her, because I have to tell them that I don't have that answer yet. I am hoping and praying that all of us that got caught up in the abandonment ban get our court dates soon after they reopen. It is rough watching her grow up in pictures without us, but I am grateful that we will have these pictures for her scrapbook. I am grateful that they allow the traveling families to take photos of the other children for those waiting to travel. I just can't wait to hold her in my arms and whisper to her that we love her. I will wait for you Desta, how ever long it takes. Momma will come for you, I promise!
