6 Weeks
Today marks 6 weeks waiting for travel. It is getting harder with the more time that passes. There are certainly people who have waited much longer than this and I don't envy their wait. A travel group was announced for the first week of November. It is so exciting and nice to see movement for anyone. This also means that we will get PICTURES!!! We are so anxious to see how much our baby boy is changing and are looking forward to having a new picture to stare at! We still have no idea when our court date is. Based off of my parent's paperwork and knowing ours was there as soon as courts opened, I am pretty confident we must have a court date in November. Unfortunately we will not know until that date has come and gone. Right now we are praying that whenever our court date is, we pass the first time around. If this happens I am hopeful we can still travel by the end of the year. For now we are passing the time as best we can by focusing our hopes on photo updates and trying to keep our minds off of the unknown court date.

How are you? I feel like we haven't talked in forever. I realy think our dates are one of the next 3 mondays! That is totally my guess but hey it's kinda fun. We should make a bet or something on when we guess court dates will be. I can't wait for pictures!
I can't wait for those pictures either!
Pictures....what a blessing during this waiting time!!!!!
Who knows, maybe your date is the same as ours:)
Please continue praying for us....we will do the same for you.

All too soon this time will be but a distant (and ever fading) memory. Take joy in this season of patience and waiting upon the Lord.
I read this verse today:
The Lord is gracious and righteous; our God is full of compassion. The Lord protects the simplehearted; when I was in great need, he saved me. Be at rest once more, O my soul, for the Lord has been good to you.
Ps. 116:5-7
Sometimes it's better that we are simplehearted and not know all the details of God's plan. Know that He provides rest and that He promises to give what is good!! Your time will come!
Praying for you,
