We’re not completely out of the woods yet, but mercifully, we got some wonderful news today. The biggest stumbling block in our way, the thing I was really REALLY worried about (let’s say no sleep for two weeks!) has been dealt with.
It’s such a relief. You have no idea. We were so terribly worried and fearful that our adoption was falling apart. I sat in the girls’ room and wondered if they would ever sleep in the beds.
A weight has been lifted. We certainly have some people to thank and give hugs to in Ethiopia when we arrive.
To celebrate, here is a song from my favorite singer. The video isn’t much, but the music:
I am so happy for you, Nicky! Not sure what the roadblock was, but I am glad it is out of the way.
Beautiful song!
Do you have another court date set?

Nicky, I am just soooo happy to hear this! I’ve been thinking of the four of you so much!
No – no court date set YET – but now at least they CAN book it. They are going to the courts today to get a new date.
Soooooooooo happy and relieved for you.
Andrea
Yay! i am happy for you and will have my fingers and toes crossed that it will be a success!
Yes! That is fantastic news!
That is indeed wonderful news! Hope the next court date is very very soon.

So happy to hear you have some good news. I’ve been thinking of you both a lot. Fingers crossed you’re through court soon and those little girls are in your arms!
Oh thank goodness!! David just phoned from work and said, “Did you check on Nicky’s blog?”

Now you can get some sleep!

Nicky,
This is wonderful news!! We’re praying that you get a quick court date now! (we just found out about ours yesterday and it’s already on May 29th – so at least you know they are very quick right now!!) We’re also praying that you pass this court date and can bring those sweethearts home! Perhaps we’ll even see you in Ethiopia!

One big hurdle down, one small hurdle to go… Here’s hoping that they get a court date really soon and you can put this all behind you. I’ll be sending good vibes your way until it happens.
The end is in sight!!!

Alysia
Yiiipppiiiieeeeeeee!
Whew. Excellent to read. Now let’s get this thing called court out of the WAY!
Oh thank God for this good news.
I was working today and you and your girls just popped into my head and I smiled … I was hoping that it meant there were some good news coming. Glad to see that there had been some when I stopped by your blog tonight.
Yay! Good news!
Nicky, so happy to read that after being so down in the dumps there is something positive happening and things look somewhat brighter. Glad, too, to see that you didn’t skip the FCA picnic – can be hard to see others with their kids, but can also be a hope-bringing that you will be there, too… one day. Before the end of summer, I would like to hope. It’s been so long.
All the best,
Roma
I am so thrilled for you both! We can never know what twists and turns can pop up in this adoption process, and I am soo happy that you guys have seen some resolution! Let’s get those girls home!
Tracey
woohoo!! I’m sooo happy for you guys! I betcha your beautiful girls will be home with you before we’re home in Naramata (and thats soon!) Can’t wait to hear news of your court date.
Fondly,
Jenn
YahoooO!!!!!! Happy for you both and have been praying hard for good news!!
blessings,

Oh yay! So glad to hear it! I hope you’ll get to rest some now in preparation for the next steps of the adoption.
hooray!!!! I can’t wait to hear that your little ones are officially yours!!!!! major hugs all around!!
Wonderful!
Thanks everybody – we really appreciate it.
Hopefully court #6 will be booked soon and we will REALLLY have something to celebrate!
Glad to hear things are still moving forward if somewhat slow.
Sending you tons of positive energy you have those girls home before too long.
Rana
Yippee! Glad to hear that things are able to move forward with court!
