waiting....

Well, it is the end of September! I think I am the only person in this area who is super excited about that :) we are still not very patiently waiting on a court date. In the past the courts have opened at the end of Sept. so I am really hoping they will open soon and that we will find out when our court date is soon after that. Josh is graduating from BOLC on Nov. 10!!!! I am so ready for him to be home! We are hoping that our court date will be sometime in mid Nov so he will be able to go with me, our agency thinks I will be able to go to court alone since he is on orders and cannot go but they are not 100% positive. If I do go without Josh I will not be going alone, our friend Kenny King is going to go with me which relieves a lot of stress since I wont be travelling alone. 
Tennessee is beautiful this time of year, the sky is so clear and the leaves are starting to change. I have really grown to love the mountains, it is sad to think that this will probably be my last fall here. More than likely but not for certain we will be getting transferred once Josh completes his school. I have no idea when, where, or even if we will be going....you have to love the Army lol. I am actually adjusting nicely to the Army life after almost 3 years I think I have the hang of it, my answer to everything about our lives is "I don't know yet" lol I know you have all heard it before. It is really hard for me because I have always been a planner but....I am working on going with the flow....I still have a ways to go though. 
Please continue to pray for us, for both the adoption and Josh being away. Also we have 2 houses for sale so it would be really great if 1 or both could sell soon!

Referral #2

Today we received a new referral. His name is Tamirat Abreham, we are in the process of accepting the referral which is pretty much just sending an email that says we accept the referral and then we have to sign our contract and get it notarized and mailed to our agency. Tamirat is chronically malnourished so his weight and height are very low but other than that he is a healthy baby boy. His birthday is Oct.25, 2010 :) mine is the 4th and Josh's is the 31st. So he is gonna fit right in.
I am nervous, I hope that everything will go smoothly this time. We are going to wait until we go to the court date  to decide on a name this time. The courts should open at the end of Sept so we should find out when our court date is.
