Our dossier is officially in Uganda and now we are waiting for our lawyer to file in court and then we wait again for a court date! I thought it was hard waiting for a referral but that is NOTHING compared to how it feels to know who your little one is and not to be able to hold him in your arms!
I know that "Drew" is in a wonderful babies home and he is being well cared for, loved on and prepared for our family but it is SO HARD not to have him here with us. We want to be loving on him, taking care of his needs and teaching him about a God who loves him so much but that will have to wait for a few more months.
Right now, the wait for a court date is around 3-4 months. So realistically, we probably won't hear anything about our court date until end of February or March. That seems soooooo far!!
I know with the holidays quickly approaching (and life with 3 kids is already very busy) these next few months will fly by BUT when someone from your family is missing it definitely takes a toll each and everyday! We are doing all we can do now to be ready to leave ANYTIME!
A few weeks ago we all got our shots (Yellow fever and Typhoid) and that made it very real to the kids! Man, that Yellow Fever vaccination stings so bad! No one could lift their arm for the next 24 hours:) We tried to have fun with it and of course, treated ourselves to Frozen Yogurt afterwards!
I just wanted to leave you with a AWESOME song that has meant alot to me lately as we think and pray for Drew, but we remember God is there with him and He has never and will never leave him!
