We won today in court!! Even writing this is making me scream! YEAH! YEAH! YEAH! The judge told our Birth Father his fight is in Utah and that he needs to come here! WAIT, it gets better! One hour after court, Our attorney got a phone call from our Birthfather's attorney asking us if we would consider settling! HOORAY! He said that Rex (Our Birthfather) is out of money and he doesn't think he can afford to come to Utah. He is about 80% to 90% sure that this is the rode he wants to take. We will know for sure Tuesday what will happen and then we will work out the agreement (Ex. pictures, money, visitation, etc.). If we do settle, we will be able to adopt Lincoln in the next couple of weeks! That is right, we could be sealed together forever by August! We are still in shock and we are trying to not get our hopes up! For now we will thank our Father in Heaven and do a happy dance for the positive outcome in court. We will continue to pray that he does want to settle, so that this legal mess will come to an end. YEAH! YEAH! YEAH! Thursday, July 23, 2009
Our Prayers Have Been Answered!
