While cleaning my house on Friday I picked up a little jacket for Haddie that Sarai was walking around with and put it in her bag I have ready for her. As I held on to it I longed to hold on to her. An hour later I recieved a phone call from our adoption agency! He informed me they recieved an email which stated that they want us there for the 23rd of April court date. I was in shock when he told me and he was in shock that they think it is normal to call parents up and get them to India in a weeks time. I was just thrilled to have some news. The adoption agency rep told me that this has never happened in his 15 years of working with Indian adoptions. The email they had sent him contained the wrong name on it. So we decided we would make all the reservations like we are going but if they did actually contact the wrong people we will have to put all of it on hold.
So we are now packing, have our flights, rooms, and the other one hundred things needed to travel to India to meet your daughter. At least we think we have it all together... I am traveling to San Francisco to get visas for Andrew and I in such a short time frame. Pray we can get them please.
One snag though after the court day they will put in for her passport which means that it might be a month till we can bring her home. This means we will have to leave on the 25th and have to leave our little girl there. Oh it breaks my heart to think about it.
Please be in prayer for us as we embark on this adventure. Pray for her heart to be open to us and pray for ours as we bond with her. I know and believe God's timing is always the best and the way this came around is amazing. I just dread leaving her behind.....
