..last court report...

Well we went to our last court hearing for Michael and Biscuit today. The next hearing will be the adoption. I never thought God would bless us so abundantly. Wow, its very strange knowing there is no going back. Parental rights are officially terminated, appeal period is over, we have hired an attorney, submitted adoption papers and now we hurry up and wait! It is surreal to me. We are requesting that the adoption be consumated on June 20. Our (mine and Jeremy's) birthday is June 20th, yes we have the same birthday, is on a Monday and we should be able to adopt them on that day, that what our attorney said anyway. Hoping for the 20th! Update on Jonathan: Jonathan was moved on Monday to my friend Carmen's house. He is doing great there. He doesnt like going back after being at our house all day but he is getting use to. Everyday get easier but he is definantly ready to be here forever. Michael is so glad he is back, as is all of us. We are hoping that he is moved into our house on Friday or Monday. The sibiling set we have right now will be leaving Wednesday morning and returning back with their family. God was in control of our whole situation. With or without Jonathan the kids would be leaving so God really blessed us by giving Jonthan back to us, giving his home back to him and giving Michael's brother back to Michael. We are hoping to have all three boys adopted by the end of Summer, we are really going to have to push it for Jonathans but maybe they will be willing to get it done fast since he is almost 5 years old! Update on Jeremy: Jeremy still has not had any interviews but we have a couple of leads. We are hoping schools will start calling soon so that we know where we will be living after the end of May. We are just going to keep praying and hope that God will answer our prayers quickly, but it is in His time, not ours so wer also praying for patients! He graduates May 14, and I am so excited and happy for him. He has much more will power than I do and I know I couldve never stayed in school as long as he did, even though it took him 7 years he is finally done and I couldnt be more proud! I love you, Jeremy Kirk!

Jeremy, Meagan and Family!
I just want to let you know how very proud I am of you not just because I am your Mother, mother in law and nawna to the kids it is because it takes someone very strong and with the most loving heart a person can have or in your cases a family can have to hang in there and keep plunging forward like you have as a family. I believe that God puts people in our lives for a reason and even though we may not know what that reason is he has a purpose for doing what he does in our lives on a minute to minute, hour to hour and day to day basis. I look forward to celebrating your adoption of our handsome grandson's with you if it be the will of God for me to be there. I am very proud of how you have handled things along the way and how when the times got tough you just got a little tougher and stuck it all out til the end. Yeah the end is in sight and believe it or not it is just around the corner and then Michael and Biscuit and Big Brother J will get to carry the KIRK name forever and ever.

Jeremy it has been a long 7 yrs for you to get to this point of Graduation but I know that you will be placed where God feels that you can make the biggest impact on the youth athletes that you will be working with. I am sure that God has that workplace already picked out for you he just needs to make things happen for you one thing at a time and now that the court procedures are over with the children leading up to the adoption process he will not work on project number 2 and that is finding a coaching position for you to call home for a few years. Hang in there son it will all work out and it will be when you least expect it to happen......
Love you and your family
