Hi everyone!
I just wanted to let you know that we are going to court this Tuesday, May 20th with Layne. Two things will hopefully happen that day – termination of Layne’s parent’s rights and adoption by our family. This is very unusual – the courts usually make you wait up to 6 months after termination of a childs parent’s rights before they allow adoption. We are very blessed to have a situation that allows this “speed up” to happen! I fully believe it is because of YOUR prayers! We have come a long way – from possibly losing her to getting to adopt her early! Wow! Thank you so much!
Please pray that we get to adopt Layne on Tuesday. There is a possibility that we won’t – if the
parents show up and plead to the judge to give them another chance (which they have not done so far). Also pray that nothing happens for the next 30 days. The parents have 30 days to come back and file a grievance with the court asking for another hearing (for another chance to get Layne back) - this would void our adoption – Yikes!
Again, thank you for being there for us and especially Layne during this difficult time. She is so wonderful. Our family is complete with her! I will email you the results on Wednesday morning.
Love,
Laura

Adoptions are very near and dear to my heart...as you well know. My prayers will be with Laura as she goes through this very trying, stressful court time.
Tam...I'll miss the 'bus sharing time' on Tuesdays. How about some Jackie-Tammie time sometime this summer?
Yes, yes and yes...let's do!

The Lord bless you and keep you. The Lord lift up His countenance upon you and give you peace, joy, love, justice, strength and Jesus.
