The next sheet of paper we are waiting on is the court decree. Normally this takes about 2-3 weeks, today is day 13 of 15 business days waiting to get us to the three weeks. 2-3 weeks is just an average, not a guarantee. If we have the court decree by Friday, I will be on a plane on Monday. No court decree, no travel.
(take note this is an excellent opportunity for those of you who are pray-ers, to pray for a court decree!)
For today I am having faith that I will have a court decree by Friday. I will leave on Monday and file the necessary paperwork in Ghana next Thursday. But that is all subject to change based on the arrival of the court decree (which, by the way, makes the official statement that we are their parents - the judge said so, but without a sheet of paper, I cannot take next steps).
As you can see there are many variables that could change things, so I am going to out line the "normal" or "anticipated plan" here... as for Ghana and God, there might be another plan in store, but it has not yet been revealed to me.
I plan to arrive in Ghana on June 2 and leave from Ghana on June 15. It is likely that I will not be bringing the girls home with us on this trip. The expected process is that I would return home and wait 4-6 weeks for processing of paperwork before returning to Ghana to bring the girls home. (We are still waiting on a passport for Eden, so that is also a barrier to getting the girls home).
Angelisa is traveling with me on trip #1, Trent and I will travel together on trip #2.
Again, this is just the anticipated plan! God willing this will only be one trip! Yes, I do believe in miracles.
Yes, yes, yes, we are so excited. Angelisa and I are very excited to take this trip together and to bring love!

Praying for a miracle! God's timing is definitely perfect.
