Court on Wednesday!!!

Forgot to post the news on here... but just to keep everybody in the loop, Isaiah's court date is this coming Wednesday!!! If everything goes smoothly (please pray that it will!!) he'll be officially, officially ours (and we'll be officially, officially his) FOREVER starting on Wednesday. Then we'll travel 1-3 weeks later to pick him up. Wow! We're hoping for the fastest travel date possible...but that's out of our hands.

So, while court may seem like a formality since we've received so many approvals at this point, let me tell you the AMAZING thing that's declared that day.

When the judge hits his gavel during Isaiah and our family's court proceeding, he is declaring:
That this made-in-God's image, beautiful child is officially OUR SON. Lucy's BROTHER. Jack, Renee, Alex, Simon and Gabi's COUSIN. Blake, Beth, Sherri, Dave, Stephanie, Matt and KayLeigh's NEPHEW. Linda, Ron, Dottie and Bob's GRANDSON...the GREAT NEPHEW of the 11 brothers and sisters (and spouses) my dad has, the 7 brothers and sisters (and spouses) my mom has, the 4 brothers and sisters (and spouses) that Hunter's dad has. and on and on and on.

Not to mention his many unbelievable friends who have loved and longed for him with us.

And WE, my friends, are the ones who are BLESSED (I'm so freaking excited I can barely contain myself).

Please pray for that gavel to hit, declaring us his family and him our son.
