In regards to the "details" of all that has been going on, I would rather not post on the blog.
Keith and Cheryl will be bringing the boys down on Thursday and they are going to stay with us through Thanksgiving weekend. We are so happy they are going to be with us. :)
We will keep fighting to bring our daughter home because:
She is our daughter and God made that clear, so until the door is totally closed, we will keep going. It doesn't look hopeful to keep going, but we will never know until we get there and get slammed in the face by the door, right? But, if we give up now, then we will live with the regret of not knowing what could or would have been.
We love you. We can't even express how thankful we are of all the emails, phone calls, comments on the blog, the couple that deposited some money into our checking account (you know who you are!) and prayers you have provided for us. If one thing is for sure, it is knowing that we are loved and cared for back home. And that is what the Body of Christ truly is. Thank you for serving our Lord in that. We hope to have the honor of doing the same in return.

I'm glad to hear that you're not giving up. I am very sorry that you're coming home without her on THIS trip though. I keep thinking of the post recently where Selah was giving you a hard time and crying; believe Sophie did that too and still does some days! lol
We love you and continue praying for you.
Still praying. Still believing!
Love you,
Karen
My heart is aching for you guys! I can't even begin to imagine how hard this road has been, but don't give up until you absolutely have to. God is a powerful God and he is the only one that knows what will happen. Try not to dwell on it and just know that each and every one of us is praying for you guys and your family! WHY does this have to be so hard? Maybe someday we will all know and maybe someday we won't but we will know that Selah is being prayed for and we are ALL praying that she will make it home (to FLORIDA) where she belongs in his timing! (which we hope is VERY SOON!!! We love you both!
I'm so sorry you guys are coming home without Selah. My heart is aching for you.
I'm so glad that you are going to be home for Thanksgiving! Even if it isn't with Selah. Love you guys so much! Can't wait to see you next week!

My prayers are with you and always have been on this very difficult journey. Never loose hope- miracles happen each and every moment of everyday! Selah is your daughter- never loose hope! GOD works in mysterious ways. Please have safe travels and if there is ever anything I can do please never hesitate to ask.

We can only imagine how hard it is to leave Kaz without Selah in your arms. But, we know that she is YOUR daughter no matter what anyone else says. I have been sad seeing your house empty every day but am so glad that you will be home soon!!! Can't wait to give you a big hug. We're praying for safe travels.
We are praying for traveling mercies for your whole family. You are in our thoughts and prayers daily. We were so sad to hear that Selah wont be making this trip with you, but we pray hopefully that trip will happen soon! Blessings to you all!

I'm so sad that you are coming home without Selah and no answers. Will pray the Lord will indeed give you strength and wisdom as to how to fight and bring her home. Glad you will be with your boys for Thanksgiving.
Love and prayers, Beckie
Shane & Greta, I have just been reading your blog for a few weeks. I would love to hear your story from the beginning. I am praying for a miracle for you & believe God will deliver just when the time is right.
But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. Isaiah 40:31
