YES! I can't believe it! Oh...I am just thrilled for you guys. My mom and I have talked every day about ya'll and wondering when your court date would be. Wooohoooo! I can't imagine what a happy house it is tonight. I can't believe you have the same court date as Geert and Renee. Does that mean that you will be going at the same time as them...coming home on Christmas day? Lindsey and Courtney...I pray that your hearts are settled and at peace tonight...you are almost to Ian! Amy
WOO HOO!!! I'm sooo excited for you guys!! When does this mean that you guys will travel to pick up your son? Has it sunk in yet?...you have a SON!! YAY!!
When will you travel?? Will you be able to spend Christmas with Ian? SO exciting!!
YIPPEE!!! I am so excited for you!! It won't be long now until he is home in your arms:-)
I have the same question as Amy. Do you think you will travel on the 18th? I am rejoicing with you. I had to tell Micah today that Isaac won't be home by Christmas...Yuck! BUT, I take nothing away from your elation. Praise God!
Yayyy!! Sounds like a good day!!
That is amazing news! CONGRATS!!!
Congratulations! The 6th will be a big day in court. I got "the call" this morning as well and Kozette will be officially my little girl on the 6th as well. What a great day! When are your travel dates?
YEAH!!! I can't beleive it! I'm so excited you guys have the same court date as us! Even if you travel on Christmas we will still be able to meet since we are going be traveling Dec. 16th-27th!!!! YEAH! Book your travel now- flights are crazy! I'm so excited! You need to call me, I'll email you my phone number.

Wonderful Awesome News!! Congratulations over and over again.
Congratulations!!!! That is so exciting for you. You will make awsome parents, and what a wonderful Christmas present. I'm just a little jealous, as we are still waiting to get our court date. But I am so happy for you. Keep us posted.

Congratulations!! What a great way to celebrate the holidays and ring in the new year!
Congratulations! I was so happy when Amy told me that you had a court date to make little Ian yours! We are hoping that you get to be with him at Christmas. Thinking about you today, Shelia Earl (Amy Breedlove's mom).
Congrats! You are almost there! How exciting!
Congratulations! Ian is coming home soon!
That is SO exciting! What a gift!

You are so close! Hopefully our trips will overlap some!
That would be too funny, travel from KY to meet in Ethiopia ;)
