Great news!! I hope you hear a report on your daughter soon. I'm so glad they were able to get you a quick turn around on the court date.

Stephanie-
Congrats on the court date - I'm keeping your little one in my prayers and hope that you can work out all the logistics to bring her home safely. Is the court date for your other future son too? I hope so!

Stephanie,
I am sorry I have been very absent lately with so much going on at home, but I have been trying to check in to get updates from you!

Happy travels! What a wonderful way to spend Thanksgiving! I hope you get good news regarding your daughter very soon. I've been keeping her and you in my prayers!

All the best!
Christina

Hey Steph - I'm late chiming in too... but I did want to say CONGRATULATIONS! You live life to the fullest my friend...and it is only appropriate that Thanksgiving day will have such a special meaning to you from here on out.

I pray for you and your family...

Mike
