I talked to the adoption agency today about the waiting list. I was told we might get a referral as early as 4-6 weeks. That would mean we would go and pick up our new son this summer. The courts in Ethiopia close for two months starting in August. Which means we would not have a court hearing until October. I was told the best case scenario is that he would be home for summer and the worst case scenario is that he would be here for Christmas.

Defend the cause of the weak and fatherless; maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed. Rescue the weak and needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked. Psalm 82:3-4
