I was helping Cori with some business stuff tonight and it got late so this is going to be short but I promised an update so here it is. Everything with the Defender of Minors went great. I believe we flew through the interview with flying colors. The baby was an angel the whole time sleeping for most of it and then waking up smiling at everyone the rest of the time. The boys got extremely antsy but they did OK. We believe we were the new Defender of Minor’s first case EVER. He seemed to ask Cecilia and our lawyer a lot of questions about what he should be doing! He was much younger than we expected and seemed very nice but he was obviously having problems with the paperwork and had to call someone in to help him get through it. So now there is the 5 of us, Cecilia and our lawyer, plus him and his helper all crammed into this little cubical for over an hour. No wonder the boys were getting anxious. The good news is that we walked out of there with a paper that proclaimed that the Defender of Minors had approved of the adoption and was sending our file to the courts for final approval. YEAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! We will hopefully hear tomorrow what court we are in. It matters because some courts are faster than others, some approve more of international adoption than others, etc. so if we are in a ‘fast’ court, it gives us hope we will be coming home sooner rather than later. Our good friends the Kopka’s got Sentencia today and sign their paperwork tomorrow so they will be leaving very soon. That will put them here about 5 weeks so cross your fingers ours will go that fast too. They got a ‘fast’ court so I am hoping we get their same court!
I will try to write tomorrow morning about going to the leather district after our meeting……
