Good News Worth Getting Locked Out For

Having been locked outside of our home for one hot, muggy hour today with two young children, I was relieved to come inside and be deluged with good news from several St. Lucy's families.

Jackie, Lucy's mom, just received word that her daughter's adoption case is finally on the verge of entering the court system. In a unique and trying twist, they waited 9 1/2 months for closure on Lucy's guardianship case. Their whole family deserves a medal for tremendous endurance.

Tiffanie received a first decree on the adoption of her daughter, Gracyn and will likely receive a travel date soon. At this rate, Gracyn should be home to celebrate her second birthday.

After 5 weeks of uncertainty, Sarah W. and K.B. finally received approval from St. Lucy's to adopt their children, Hannah Claire and Andrew. Their cases will soon enter the courts for what will hopefully be a shorter wait than the typical 3-6 months.

All of this comes on top of Marina and Lora's big news. They finally met their daughters, Sarah and Allie this week at St. Lucy's.

Need I say it's fantastic to see so many of William's roomates making such great progress towards coming home?
