Update

Nothing.  That is what we know.  The mother's court occurred today and the judge decided to give her more time to get her act together.  Now we wait until they schedule another court date, probably mid to late July.  More waiting...pray for patience for us and for more peace until this process is complete.  Thanks for all of your support and prayers.

Please Pray Tomorrow, and an early Happy Birthday!

Tomorrow is the rescheduled court date. Please pray along side us for a resolution. Over the past couple of months I think I have come to understand a little more the phrase "peace that passes understanding"... I've felt most of the time, just a supernatural peace that things will work out when they work out. I'm not sure I expect his birth mom to show up tomorrow, and I'm not sure that I expect a resolution tomorrow, but I expect that God's will will be done. So for now, I will just continue to pray for him, us, and the outcome.

Next week is AS's 9th birthday. There is some confusion over the date (he says it's in July, another document said one day next week, and his birth certificate said another), but we're going with the birth certificate. I hate that he will be spending it in the orphanage, but I don't know what else we can do. What a gift, though, would an expeditious end to this waiting be!

New Court Date

We just found out when the mother's court date has been rescheduled for: June 22.  Although that is further in the future than we wanted, we are praying for a good outcome that day (or, just that they won't reschedule it again).
