UP and then down....the story of our lives

So when we received our referral for our daughter on March 10th, 3 other families had received their referrals on March 9th. We are the first group of adopting families with our agency that received referrals after the MOWA announcement about reducing adoption cases reviewed, so we've been pretty anxious just wandering how in the world the changes might affect us. One possible options is that court dates would be delayed. We were very excited on Monday when the families that were referred on the 9th received their court dates. Our call didn't come, and even though I was glued to my phone yesterday, it didn't come then either (guess a watched phone never rings). But, we did get a call today. I did start freaking out today when I was driving home from work and I heard my phone ring and saw it was our caseworker. It was NOT the call we were hoping for. Nope, we still have no court date, but our sweet little A has pneumonia. She's being well taken care of and we have complete confidence in her special mothers and the pediatrician that visits HH often, but we would still really appreciate any prayers for quick healing for our little girl. While this sort of thing is pretty common in orphanage type settings, it still can be dangerous for babies and we want our little girl to be happy and HEALTHY! Please pray with us for A to get healthy quickly and for us to get a court date soon so we can GO SEE HER.
