NEWS!

Marcela (adoption attorney) texted me this morning.  She saw on the internet this morning that our file will be published on Monday!!Basically, what this means is that the social worker has given her opinion on the psychologist´s official findings regarding Nico's birthmom, judge has read it and it is officially a legal part of our file.  On Monday, Marcela will go to the courthouse and read the social worker's report and then file a motion asking the judge to act on whatever the SW says.  Our deepest desire is that the social worker is FINALLY (21 months later) satisfied that everyone involved (bio family as well as ourselves) has Nico's best interests at heart and she is recommending that we move forward with the permanent guardianship. 

It will be hard to wait until Monday.  I'm hopeful that the report says what I want it to, but I'm prepared for her to ask for something else.  This particular SW has been incredibly nitpicky from the beginning.  Marcela says that she honestly can't think of anything else they could possibly request....but, we've thought that before. 

Dave's way down south this weekend.  The Bible study went well last night, good fellowship.  Antonio, the fella Dave is working with in Goya has found another family that wants to meet as well - on Saturday nights.  It is really neat to see God working through Antonio.  He's had a very rough couple of years and we're happy to see him holding tighter to God rather than turning away from Him.

This afternoon, David will meet with Pastor Hector in Esquina - about an hour away from Goya where Antonio lives.  Hector pastors the Jesus, Light to the Nations Evangelical Church in Esquina and has a deep burden to reach the lost; reaching out especially to men and their families.
