No Go...


We did not pass court today. Judah's birth mom did appear in court and gave her conset, which is a very good thing. Most likely she will not have to appear again. We are so thankful for this! The court requested additional documents and our agency is checking into what exactly this means. We'll know more soon, but feel good about the fact that they've already scheduled another court date for June 10. This is also good news.

While we're disappointed, we're confident that God's timing is perfect. We're just really anxious to go get our little boy.

We spent the day on the beach, and here's a pic of what was on our minds!

HI! I just stumbled on your blog and after reading the Tulip Time post, wondering if you live in W. Michigan? We live in Hudsonville.

Had to laugh about your little guy's measurements, we have had the same thing. Wondering how exactly they measure.

Anyways, so sorry about the sad news about court. Hoping your family is united SOON.

Take care!
