COURT NEWS!!!!

Today the 817 area code made my day!!! Gladney called around 4:30pm to let us know that our case will be reviewed on July 2nd!! That's next Friday!! Our federal court date in Ethiopia is a little unsure because it was listed as July 18th, which is a Sunday. Clearly that is not right so hopefully we will find out our actual court date on the 2nd. But Gladney thinks that if all goes well on the 2nd then we'll probably be in Ethiopia the week of July 19th!
I know that many things could go wrong on the 2nd that would keep us from traveling on the 19th but today I am celebrating this progress in getting our little Buster home!!!

  11. Congrats on your referral and on your court date!

    I met your mom here in Tulsa last Thursday at a library event. She saw my gorgeous little ET princess and said to me, "is your daughter Ethiopian?" and from there we shared the joy over your gorgeous boy! (she showed me a pic on her phone- what a cutie!)

    So big congrats to you and best wishes for all to go well on Fri!!!
