Heart was broken and mended...in a matter of hours.

Today has been a whirlwind of emotions so this entry may be a little hectic! I went to work after a very tiring weekend on a very blah Monday morning. Just as I was leaving for lunch I checked my email and it read something like this "... the judge isnt going to be available on the date we have planned the next possible adoption date will be in July, if even then..." CRUSHED! I know it may not seem like a big deal to most and its just a piece of paper but its so much more than that to us, to me, to Michael and Biscuit. We had a party planned, our first family vacation, we would be moving. All our plans come to a complete hault! The party needs to be cancelled, training and permission before we can take them on vaction, and moving-well Daddy would have to go without us. People were praying for us and for me. My grandma said "God can handle it, youll be ok."

After crying for over an hour, being sent home from work because I couldn't even get my mind to focus on anything else our attorney FINALLY calls. After sharing with him the bad news he said "It's ok, thats my job not the adoption workers, I have yalls adoption date for June 20th, with another judge!" Thank you Lord and man was that fast! June 20th is mine and Jeremy's birthday so we had are heart set on that date. When he told us, it would be on the 20th I was so relieved I cried some more! I am so grateful to have him on our side, when it seems like no one else is. Now there's still some glitch and of course there's a Negative Nancy on the case too, but were squeezing in all the pre adoption visits between Thursday and next Monday. Hopefully we will be good to go for June 20th. Glad I didn't cancel the party.

Prayer-it's a powerful thing!
