The past two weeks we've been diligently working on getting all the documents needed for court either prepared or updated. The biggest piece in question was an update to our home study. Having these things ready so we can take them with us on our first trip is significant because it can speed up a court date. We had kind of given up hope this past weekend when we still had no update and phone calls to the social worker were not being returned. Then on Sunday around 9:00 pm we got a phone call at home, the update was completed!! Today we got the green light from our agency that the update will be sufficient. It appears that we have successfully gotten all the documents needed! Such a HUGE relief and answer to prayer. Now we can focus these last days on packing and getting ready to travel without having this burden hanging over us.
On another note, until the adoption is final we have been asked not to put any specific information or pictures of the child on line. We will try and send an e-mail or two while in Russia so you may get to see something that way but we aren't sure how much time we will have to do much e-mail and/or Facebooking while in the country. We know our friends and family are excited and eager to see and hear more but you may have to wait just a little bit longer. Thank you for caring and please continue to keep us in your prayers.
