We waited....

..... and we will wait longer.

In November of 2007 we got a call the night before Thanksgiving. It was the girls birth mom telling hubby we could have the girls. She wanted me to adopt them. Yes, ME! But we couldn't come and get them until the following Friday. It was a long week to wait. We were so nervous. We were scared. We were excited. But we waited that week out.

Now we have waited 2.5 years to get a court date. May 10, 2010 at 1:30pm court room 4. Second floor of the court house to be exact. We got there to the door. We waited for Hubby's name to be called. We went in once it was called and sat and waited.

Once the judge came in and showed his concern because the other party wasn't there (birth mom) and said all the kids needed to leave the court room. However they got to stay because the other lady said it was an adoption hearing. Well we waited while the judge flipped threw his papers. He looked confused. He told us he didn't have the right papers. He couldn't do anything without the papers. So we waited while he spoke with the other lady in the court room and she looked at a few things. Sure enough the judge couldn't help us. He sent us home. He told us to come back after some papers were filed.

So we have waited 2.5 years to be a "Legal" family why wouldn't we want to wait alittle bit longer....
