Several of you have asked, "What's next?" and the truth is that we really don't know.
Our updated dossier is now at our agency in Washington (state). Our two papers that had to be certified at the State Department in Washington DC are still in route. We sent them by courier early last week and hope it will only take two weeks to get them back. I'm really hoping that they will show up early . . . Monday would be nice!
Once everything arrives at our agency, they will ship it to Ethiopia. At that point, no one really knows what will happen. Most likely, it will all need to be translated before it goes back to the judge. We don't know yet if we will have a scheduled court date or if the paperwork will just be reviewed when our agency submits it.
Obviously, we are just hoping that it will go as fast as possible!
After we pass court, it will take another 6-9 weeks before we can go back to pick up our girl. So we are very anxious to pass court quickly. It would be a great present to pass court before Christmas! Let's pray for that.

Sorry I have been out of the loop. We will pray that these documents/court dates etc will move quickly so that Desta will quickly be in your home and in your arms. Those brothers are going to LOVE her. Love your family.
