Yipppeee A Court Date!
Thank the Lord!!!! We were blessed with a court date today
 Which was totally unexpected (even surprised our caseworker). We will be traveling to St. Petersburg in 2 weeks.We are praying for a good trip & that everyone else receives referrals & court dates soon! Thank you for sharing all your knowledge & experiences with us, it has helped get us through some tough times. Any last minute tips (i.e. what to pack, court, etc.) would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Mike
