We just wanted to let you know we got some good news today in regards to our adoption! We are ONE step further along! The appeal paperwork, (that the Kaz staff has been working on since DECEMBER), has been officially submitted to the "Committee" today. The next step is to wait for our Supreme Court hearing date. That could take 4-6 months from now. BUT, hey- we are just happy to have some kind of news and a step further!!! :)
Now, I get to write a letter to Selah and send her an updated family picture! The Kaz staff will make sure that the Orphanage Director gets it and reads it to her in Russian.
Selah is now 27 months, can you believe it?!?! She has "outgrown" all the clothes that have been waiting on her here and I am beginning to wonder if the beautiful crib bedding will be needed any longer! *sigh* I sure wish we could have had our daughter all this time. But, God knows better and we continue to TRUST Him. There have been MANY treasures along the way throughout this process!....And, of course, there has been pain and struggle too, but for some reason the "treasures" seem greater. :)
Thank you for your continued prayers!
