New Stress

We are kind of freaking out in our house. We are finding out that we may not be able to legally adopt Collin quite yet. It seems we do not have a court date for finalization, and it just seems like whatever we try to plan seems to fall through (I realize that so is life!) This is just very frustrating. We have family coming from out of town, and have the building reserved and the temple booked. I'm not sure what will happen, but I think we need some prayers. Prayers that we will find the window to see our day in court, and prayers that some hearts will be softened so that we can finalize and make Collin legally and spiritually ours. I know about patience, and I am willing to wait as I have already, but it is time. It's time to have our day and make it all happen (hopefully with those we love surrounding us!)

  1. Gah! Ag. Blah. :( Oh no. Hang in there! We're praying and pulling for you! Anything we can do, please let us know. We're here for you whenever, wherever! If I need to go fight a judge to the death just let me know, I got mad skills and I'm so there. ;)

  2. Oh my gosh! Satan tries to thwart families from every end! I will certainly keep you guys in my prayers! My oldest brother has adopted three kids, and right before the sealing, there was some big mess of an obstacle to overcome. This stressful experience will make you guys stronger as a couple and as a family. It will happen! Just keep thinking, and praying for that!

  4. Hey, think positive! At least you have custody of Collin and don't have to spend years in court trying to settle a dispute with unfit birth parents.
