A big step forward!

God just knew I needed a little pick-me up! Our paperwork arrived from Moscow today. This is a huge relief. Now Irina will run around and get everything notarized in Vlad. She will then submit our documents to the court next Tuesday (they only accept documents on Tuesdays). Then we will wait to hear from the judge on if he/she needs any additional documents of if he/she can tell by the pictures that we sent that we are more than ready to have the Little Guy home and just issues us a court date. I know there is still a wait ahead of us. A part of me is still feeling defeated by the wait, but the other more rational part of me knows that you HAVE to celebrate the small victories in this process. This is one steady step in the right direction!

Slowly, steadily, surely……

Praise the Lord! ...from Patch the Pirate: "Little by little, inch by inch. By the yard it's hard, by the inch, what a cinch. Never stare up the stairs, just step up the steps! Little by little, inch by inch!" YEEAAAHHH!!

Hallellujah!!!! Oh. I'll be praying that your court date comes quickly. While we were still in Vlad, our coordinator submitted a dossier and received the court date for that family less than one week later!! Praying that that's your situation as well!!

Blessings as you wait.....
