We have been home for a week now. I am sorry for the lack of posting. Life happens and time slips away from me.
The rest of our trip went very well. On Monday October 29 we had our court appearance. That all went very smoothly. We were the 2nd name to be called, they ask you about 6 questions and we were out the door. Hannah Grace became our "legal" daughter that day. After court we were able to spend some more time with her at Jane's House. That was a great visit. She was very happy and we got some good pictures of her with big smiles.
On Tuesday we left for our overnight trip to the north. We drove about 3 hours out of the city to Blue Nile Gorge. It was a beautiful drive and it was nice to see some of the countryside. There is a lot of beauty and Ethiopia and we really want Hannah to be able to see that too.
On Wednesday we had to say goodbye for now to sweet Hannah. It was a difficult time for us. We spent our time cuddling and praying over her. As much as we were ready to see our other kids we really struggled leaving her there. I rest in knowing she is well cared for and loved by all those sweet and tender-hearted nannies.
We look forward to the time when our family is ALL together. We pray soon that we will have her home.
