Our family's newest member!!!




We successfully made it through the 3 hours of court. Many questions were asked and although it wasn't the most pleasant of all experiences we are so very thankful it went as well as it did.

S.H. -we got the very same jurors! can you believe it????

We celebrated at a local restaurant with our interpreter and driver. Then sadly, he had to return her to the orphanage while we wait our next 10 day waiting period. But even that couldn't dampen any of our smiles, giggles and just the sheer joy God has given us. We heard more 'Slava Bog's today than the whole trip combined! Every official, representative, orphanage worker and child is so happy for Vala and us. It is a glorious day that we have long waited for! Slava Bog! (Praise God!) for His mercy, His kindness, His love and provision!

John and I have not had much sleep in the past two nights, in fact he's already fallen asleep while I'm typing this! We are going to hit the bed early and get a good, restful night's sleep.

Until next time......

Vala and I wish you a good night!

Singing praises to the One with all my heart! Jenn
