    Congrats to you all how relieving and emotional this must feel! We recieved our referral 1 day after you guys and our agency doesn't release court date info.....just travel info as soon as we get our embassy date! AHHHH I wish I knew the day our son was legally ours. However you have given me hope that maybe he is in court this week!

    CHEERS! (sorry we set our blog to private due to the scare! however we are coming back "live" haha after we recieve our good news!)

    Take care!
