Well, I just got done posting that we got our official referral and that we had to wait about 2 weeks for a court date. On Friday morning we received an email that said our court date was set for Jan. 4th! Since Ethiopia is ahead of us, we should find out by noon if we passed court.
We are very encouraged by the speed of our court date. We know that God is watching this whole thing closely and we keep praying we can have her home before her next birthday! (which is the end of February).
We are very glad that we have the holidays to keep us distracted while we wait for our court date. We will have one of the best destractions ever, the McKenzie clan (all 7 of them) will be coming to stay with us for a week and help us ring in the New Year. Another family, the Mottos (who just brought home their son from China) will be coming to spend New Years eve with us as well (the McKenzie's and Mottos were friends first, but now we all are). Anyway, that will be their 5 and our 5 and the McKenzie 7! Wow!! What a house full we will have and we are looking forward to every minute of it.
Keep up your prayers. Send us emails of encouragement!
Merry Christmas!
