We saw Natalie today!

Our hearts are happy! We saw our little girl today at her orphanage. She turned 20 months on Monday, is walking well on her own, she has 4 more teeth, her hair is growing, she is taller and has a bit more weight on her. That's the good news!

Tomorrow is court day and we spent the evening with our translator going over questions the judge could ask us. We are hoping to get the 10 day wait waived due to her health. Her kidney issue is getting worse and we need to bring her home and get medical attention as soon as possible. Please remember us in prayer for Friday court.

Hopefully we will be able to post pictures of Natalie once the judge has made his decision---we can't wait to hear him say he is "satisfied" with the answers to his questions.

I'm praying that your 10 day wait is waived so you can come home earlier with little Natalie.

God bless,

Karen and Steve,
We have been praying throughout the night and are waiting with you for the beautiful words "DAH" to be spoken. Rest in the peace of our precious Lord and Savior. We will also be praying for the waiver - God can do anything! We love you all!
