For those who have been following our journey, you probably noticed that we weren't rejoicing 10 days after my last blog entry! :( If you can believe it, the judge left again on vacation, promising me that he would pass everything along to the other judge and asking us to return in "TEN MORE DAYS." Well, on the tenth day, we returned to the courthouse to find that nothing had been done. However, our social worker had returned from vacation and assured us that all she needed was the judge's signature and she would do everything she could to get us the guardianship this week. Although the last 11 months have been frustrating at times, we are so thankful that we were able to "unofficially" start our family last April. We are believing in faith that Ben, Jenna, and Lindsay will officially be ours in the next few days! Thank you for standing with us in prayer.
