As most of you know, we did not pass our 7th hearing on October 3.
A positive is that our case was heard because the last 2 hearings have said strike. So now we will have our 8th hearing on October 28 (which will be the night of the 27th for us).
October 27th is Britt's 40th birthday! We are praying he will wake up the next day to "Case Disposed." When we see that on the court website we will know we have passed court! On my 36th birthday, back in July, we got 5 new pictures of our girl! (Like how I slipped my age in there so you know I have a few more years until I am 40? Haha!!)
I can't wait until we can share her beautiful face with all of you!!
We were disappointed and frustrated Tuesday morning after seeing we still had not passed court. Caleb's usual Monday homeschool classes were moved to Tuesday, so we all went to Montgomery and just spent the whole day together as a family. It was very much needed!
We found a nice park to hang out at while Caleb was in class.

Proverbs 31 Ministries has a website with daily devotions on it. It has become one of my favorites. Here are some that helped me out this week. I hope someone else can use it also...
Christian music has also been a HUGE help to me during our adoption process. If I start feeling depressed I put Christian music on. These have been some of my favorites during our process...
Just some pictures from this past week...
Eli's art from class this week!
We bought a hamster...happy boys...therapy hamster??
Homeschool Service Club with cousins! Decorated cookies and made cards for 911 dispatchers.
We celebrated my sweet momma's birthday!
Had a sister date...sushi and pedicures!
My momma saved my Cabbage Patch Kid Dolls...Cathy Dory and Buck Willy (hahaha!) Cathy is in an outfit I bought over a year ago for Mary-Lynn that is too small now. Buck is in the outfit that Caleb, Eli, and Matthew wore home from the hospital. They are both sitting in Mary-Lynn's room waiting for her to come home!
Matthew was up bright and early Saturday morning. As he was playing he said, "I want my baby sister!" Her brothers are so ready for her to be home just like her mommy and daddy are. I will leave you with a video of Matthew. He prays this prayer every single day...
"Thank you to ask God to bring baby sister home, to give us sweet dreams; MattMatt and baby sister and momma daddy and Caleb and Eli. Amen"
