Hi ladies!!!

It's been WAY too long but wanted to let you know if you didn't know already that our court date for Ella's finalization is set for April 12th! We have had to hire a lawyer to make sure all of the ICWA stuff is in order but we are hoping and praying that the judge agrees that we have done everything we need to and can proceed with finalization!!!

I'll let you know how it goes!

Arg... update from our lawyer.

Finalization is pushed back, yet again. Apparently the letters that were sent out to the tribes that Ella could be a member of were not sent out the proper way. The agency sent them certified mail and the statute requires them to be sent out REGISTERED mail.

So, our lawyer is going to send the letters again, but because of this we are required to give them the proper time to respond, yet again. So we are now looking at beginning of May.

I just hope and pray that they leave well enough alone. I can't stand to even process the thought that somebody might STILL be able to take away my baby girl.

I'll keep you ladies posted when we get another court date set up!

Oh Kari, what a headache--our lawyers totally messed up the twins' paperwork and charged us $5600 and 7 months to do the adoption (they got paid $2k as agreed upon initially).

Elizabeth's took us 42 days from start to finish and cost us $215. We thought the lawyers would be of help, nope. ((hugs))
