made it through court!
HI,
After lurking on this website since the summer(on advice of my agency) and after an almost two year adoption journey of ups and downs, we had court today and were granted the adoption of our daughter, Joanna Rada Kravitz. I want to thank you all for your support within the past year and I enjoyed getting to know many of you. It is all appreciated. I wish you all the best on your adoptions and hope all of the reaccreditation/NGO issues resolve quickly! Sincerely, Amy K, New Jersey
