That was the first few words in the update from my agency. It was so refreshing. I am used to "I am sorry to say...blah...blah...blah" Hope adoptions had 9 court cases approved on Monday and one of them was from Nightlight. That is good news. There were no new court dates last week, so maybe this week it will happen.
I believe that Julie, my friend traveling to Addis Ababa, should be over there right about now. I am so hoping that she gets a chance to see Yoseph and hold him. I also plan on getting in touch with a former CCS teacher that is returning to Addis on Aug. 13th. She is teaching over there at a missionary school. I need to make a face to face meeting with her.
I went over to school today to start moving things around and setting my classroom up. I can not believe that school starts in less than 2 weeks. Ahhh, where did the summer go? I love my job, but can't believe I have lived my summer away. It was a good one. I really enjoyed spending time with my mom. It was also nice to see my brother and sister and their kids. Their kids almost seem like my siblings. Two of them are having babies in the future. It is all pretty exciting for my brother.
I am thankful once again for the opportunity and privilege to travel and spend time with family and friends. God is so good to me. Here is a pic of my mom and sister at Jodie's wedding. The other one is of my brother, the father of the bride. It was such a beautiful wedding.
