Well you know Girlfriend, that WE are praying!! We want Miss B.L.E.D.L.G.K.E. home NOW!! Can't wait to snuggle her ourselves!! He who is faithful, will do it!
Where to begin. I've written before that we were "done" on the Uganda side of things for bringing Betty home. Welllll, not so much. My lawyer just told me about four declarations we need that are causing me a bit of pause -- mostly because they are causing him to pause.
Betty was abandoned when she was five days old. No one knows who her parents are and no one has ever tried to adopt her. A police officer found her and took her to the orphanage at five days old. Apparently, we need declarations from (i) the police officer who found her in front of his house, (ii) the police officer who called the orphanage after she was found (a different one), (iii) the police officer at Katwe Police Station who received the report, and (iv) the local authorities (I don't know what that means) of the area where she was found.
In keeping with my "please pray specifically" for us request, here they are. This is not Chicago. Finding these people could be difficult and daunting. Please pray that we find them quickly and get their declarations right away. Also pray my attorney is being diligent in tracking them down. Betty needs to come home soon. She is sick and needs a mama. Please, Lord.
Back in the States, I got my fingerprint appointment today, so we are almost done here! Yippee!!! Once I'm printed (for the 200th time -- think they know I used to work for the G?), we will get approval and be ready to travel, as soon as we have a court date. Wuh hooo!
We have a new park, previously mentioned, by our house. Today was the grand opening and Seth had a blast. They mayor came (really?) and they had a train (yep, that's right) for the kids. Happy Saturday.
