Off we go!

Bags are packed and repacked numerous times, but I believe we are ready to zip them up and try to get some sleep before we head out tomorrow. We fly to Atlanta around 12:20 pm and then to Moscow around 5 pm; arriving in Moscow 10:30 am (their time)on Tuesday, June 3.

I can't wait to see how Natalie has changed over the past four months. She is 20 months old tomorrow (Monday) and I pray she has grown and is still the happy little girl we spent three hours with one unforgettable day in February. I want to kiss her dimpled cheeks again and watch the twinkle in her eye. My arms can't wait to wrap around her, cuddle her and rock her to sleep. We're coming Natalie!!

Our court date is June 6th (not sure of the time yet) but please lift us up in prayer on Thursday night as we will be eight hours ahead of you and probably headed into court by then. We are believing that we will find favor with the judge as he asks us questions that will assure him of the safety, well-being and future of this little life. I will be relieved, grateful and completely thrilled when we hear him say "dah" (yes!).

Mark your calendars now, we arrive in Dulles airport on Thursday, June 26, around 8:30 pm. Everyone is welcome to come and catch a glimpse of the Clark Family!

More to come as we journey on . . . . . . .

What a beautiful account of this journey. Covering you with fasting and prayer this week. I will begin my own little "court day" prayer meeting at midnight Thursday night (our time). "He who began a good work in you will be faithful to complete it!"
Much love and blessings...
