Thanksgiving Day fell on Little V's birthday this year. She turned 6 years old! 6 years in an orphanage. Praying that this will be her last birthday and her last Christmas in an orphanage without a family. We're coming little girl.
Exciting news: Today in the mail we received our I800 approval. This means that our lawyer in V's country can contact the US Embassy on our behalf and get approval to then move forward in the courts. We are hoping that next week sometime we will be assigned a judge and court date and we can finally answer the question "when are you going to get her?"! If I had to make a guess at this point I'd guess that travel will likely be in early February but nothing seems to have gone the way I thought it would with this so we're keeping an open mind.
In the next few days/weeks please keep our family in your prayers. The holidays are just around the corner and with it comes a lot of activities. We also have a few major adoption related bills upcoming (our last agency payment and then our travel expenses). As always please keep our health and Little V's health lifted up. God is amazing and he's got this. :)
