A sad and tearful delay.....
This morning, we received word from our agency that our case will not be heard before the courts close. I must say, this news was definitely a shock. Totally unexpected by all, including our agency. They were sure that there wouldn't be a problem getting through, but as luck would have it, we won't be traveling until sometime in the later part of October now. It is hard to find the silver lining in this news, but hope and the love for the girls will prevail. It's just too hard to be sad! We will just have to suck it up and press on. The girls did receive our package and hopefully are enjoying their clothes, toys and the scrapbooks I put together. We should be receiving an updated set of pictures. When they arrive, we will let you know. xoxo

Oh...we are all so sad for you, and for the girls too, as they so deserve to have a family. Our prayers are with you & with them! Love, Erin
I shed some tears for you... I can't imagine being so close and then being told to wait... how hard. We got our referrals at the end of March and did not meet them until June and I remember telling my director how hard the wait was. She told me the one silver lining that I hope you can hold on to... In this wait, your daughters will be able to fully grieve the loss of their first family. When you become a part of their life, hopefully they will be able to embrace you more fully because of the time they have been given to grieve and then move forward.. Call me whenever you want to!
That is such hard news to take. I am sorry and am thinking about you! I am sure, as with all things that are hard - you will be able to look back and see a purpose. Thanks for keeping us up to date. We are praying for you.
Hang in there friend. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
