Soon, very soon

I tell you what, the last month has been a harder wait for me than the last 2 years. But, God has been so good to us. Last week, 2 days before Ethiopia passed the law requiring two trips for adoption, we found out that our paperwork was received in court before that took effect and we'd only need to make ONE trip. This was such a blessing. Today, we got a tentative travel date (July 8!), which is great news as well. We will know for sure about this date after May 26. Wow, this is all happening at once. I can't wait to show you pictures of our little guy. He's, in my opinion, pretty adorable. Once we pass court, we will be able to post some pics. I can tell you this, we've decided on the name Elijah. Elijah means "The Lord is my God". One rule though, no calling him Eli. We can't have an Eli and a Manning. Too weird. If you can't figure this one out, ask someone who likes football.
Ok, so until next time. Peace.
