Santiago

Today we got up early (late for Maria the kids in the home get up around 5:30) at 6:15 and left for Santiago which is about 3.5 hours away. We made it in time to meet the Judge who will have the final say on the adoption. We were told that we will need to meet with their social worker 3 times this week for an hour or two so that she can observe how we are interacting with one another. Maria has been well today, it was a long trip for her and she is tired....we both are. Hopefully we will all get a good nights sleep tonite. God bless you all and please keep praying.

Thank you all so much for keeping us in your prayers....short term please pray that our children will find strength to hold up well and also pray that the social worker will approve of us and that there are no delays in this process. God bless you all...Kendall tell Amanda to warm up her Spanish :)
