Court Date!

We found out today that we have a court date of April 24th!!!!!! This means that the Ethiopian court will review all our information and either decide they need more info or approve us as parents of Baby Z! Of course, we're desperately hoping for the second option but we're trying to be realistic. About half of adoptive families have multiple court dates. This has really nothing to do with the child or the family or even the agency, it has to do with the government and whether they lost paperwork or didn't present it to the judge in exactly the right way or something. If we do pass the first time, we would probably travel sometime in May. We're getting really excited now that we have a date - it feels like this is actually going to happen soon!
