Nothing new to report except the wait is REALLY hard.

Wayne and I know that our INS-171 H was sent to Guatemala and is currently being translated or has been translated. We are now waiting on our case to be accepted into Family Court. Evidently once the case is in Family Court the DNA test will be requested. We were told that we could not go visit until the DNA results are back and that could take a month or so from the time the test is done. Wayne and I had so hoped we would be going to visit Madison in September. We both have birthdays in September and wanted to spend that time with her but it looks like that is out of the question now. We were really discouraged at that news. I know that God's hand is in this and he is in control but when we hear of other families getting to go visit and we can't it is really hard. We so want to see Madison in person and to be able to hold her and tell her we love her. We are still planning on going to visit as soon as they tell us we can and are praying that God willing she will be home before the end of the year. We know that we are so lucky to be as far in this process as we are in just 3 months but knowing that Madison is so far away each night is extremely hard. Please keep us in your prayers. We don't want to get to impatient with God because we know that he will use this time for what he has planned. Please continue to also pray for Madison and all those involved in this adoption.


PS... we love to read your comments so please let us know you stopped by the blog.
