It only took 295 days but ...........It HAPPENED!

WE PASSED COURT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

God is so good! This story is utterly amazing and I am so blessed to be
a part of it! I cannot describe how it felt to hear...Congratulations! We have
your court decrees! I have two daughters! They are precious as precious
can be....So today, they will be on bus with 8 of their sweet friends and
will be reunited with 6 more at the transition center! I can barley breathe
when I think about it...The miracle children...that is what they are...living
breathing miracles....

On Monday, it didn't look like us and another families kiddos were going to
make that bus trip, because as of Monday we hadn't received our decrees.
The thought of the bus leaving without the three of them broke our hearts...I sobbed and sobbed...What would they think, would they be sad or scared. Because even though
it has been 295 days for us parents here in America, it has been far longer for these
sweet precious children... They are like a family, some together for over a year and a half.

On Tuesday morning when our case worker called us to say we had our decrees, we
were beyond thrilled even though we knew it meat that is was one day to late for them to make the journey from the orphanage to Addis Abba with all the other children. We knew it would happen but just not today.... As we went about our day (walking on air) we didn't think it could get any better...But that later in the afternoon an email came from ourcase worker that said....There was a bus/transportation issue today, so tomorrow ALL the children will be transported together...REALLY! Amazing! I felt like God was saying to me...See, I got this...all of it...every detail, it is my adoption...See how I work...I am working ALL
things out...I know the exact hour...you need only to look to ME and be still........

Ephesians 3:20

Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us,
