Postponed

My court date has been postponed until Dec 31st. The birth family did show up and I am very thankful for that. However, the letter from MOWA did not show up. That is what I still need to have in order to pass.
Thank you for all the prayers. I felt them. :)

  1. Stay strong Ruthanne!! Thankfully, Little Bear coming home is not an "if", but a "when", but patience is so very difficult. I'm so sorry, and I'm sad with you.

  6. my heart hurts for you Ruthanne. I won't presume the wait is any less painful with one child already home, and know you long for Bear in your arms.
    I just hope and pray all this pain evaporates once he finally is.

  10. I am so sorry. What a difficult day. But, yes, knowing that the birth family has done their part already is a big encouragement.

    Praying for you and your boys.

  11. Oh Ruthanne, I was so looking forward to celebrating with you. My Ethiopian friend told me the other day, when I was contemplating a failed court date, "do not be sad, because if you do not pass it is only because it is the will of God." He words resignated with me as I realized again, (always needing that constant reminder,) that God is in control of all things and it is He who knows what is best for us. I am praying for you sister. I don't have to tell you that God's timing is perfect because I know you already know this, but I can always remind you ;)
