6 WEEKS!!

OK..that week went fast! Now it's just 6 weeks until our court date! Ella is really starting to understand the concept of having a sister and it is precious. Today we were at Sam's shopping with our sweet friend, Courtney. We put Ella in the cart which had 2 seats in the front. I said "Ella, who is that seat for?" (thinking she would say 'my baby' or something like that) She said, "M" (but she said her full name--so sorry, I still can't tell you her name) And just now I was talking to her about sharing her Mommy and Daddy and that we are going to share her when "M" comes home and she said "And I go to school with "M" and it be so fun!" I am so excited for both of my girls to have a sister!

7 WEEKS!!

It's only 7 weeks until our court date!! We REALLY need our case to pass court on this day for several logistical reasons but mostly for our sweet "M".  We don't want anymore time to go by in her young life without us there.  We know she is in great hands but we really want to be with our little girl.  And Ella wants her to hurry, too! Yesterday she told me she is going to get her a present...a shirt!  Also, Ella knows she gets to go to school this summer which is after M gets home and she really wants to go to "cool"!  These girls are going to be best buds and we can't wait to watch them together.  M better be ready for a sweet but tough little girl that will always have her back-"Ella Gwace Mogan"  (Ella Grace Morgan)

So please, when you pray for us, pray that our court date is heard on March 13th and it passes.

Thank you friends!

WE HAVE A COURT DATE

We found out today that our court date is scheduled for March 13, 2009!! We are SO excited!!! We do not have to be in Ethiopia for this appt. as we have signed over power of attorney for this meeting.  This is the date that "M" will legally become ours.  Then we will travel to get her about 5 weeks after that.  Also, we got 5 new pictures of her today and she looks so happy and healthy. She was playing with a soccer ball in the pictures and wearing pj s that say "Sweet Dreams".  So cute!! She is adorable and we can't wait to show her to you soon!
