Rescheduled court date

I talked to Julie, and our court date is rescheduled for Friday, December 19. So we could be spending New Year's Eve on a plane or in Africa. We are certainly praying that our son will be home shortly after the new year begins!! It seems that our file was all in order except for the documents from the Central Authority, and I am assured that the Ethiopian staff is working very hard to make sure that all those documents make it to our files for the second time around. Of course, there is only so much they can do.....after all, they are dealing with a government office. But we are reservedly hopeful that things will go well and we will travel in early January.
