Here Come Da Judge!
We have a court date in St. Petersburg – May 10! Yes, I know that’s not in April, so, obviously no one could have guessed it. An AT&T friend - Janet Shadd – came the closest with her April 28 entry. So, Janet – expect a fabulous prize from St. Petersburg!
Speaking of which….please be praying that our adoption is final on May 10, and not 10 days later. The judge can decree it either way. If it’s final on May 10, we’ll wait for some paperwork, then scoop Guanna-to-be-Julia off to Moscow for processing, then home to San Antonio. We could be home in a week. If it’s final in 10 days….we’ll have to return home to San Antonio without Guanna-to-be-Julia, then return at the 10-day mark to get her and continue onto Moscow. In the meantime, we’ll also be (quickly and quietly) visiting a few dimly-lit convenience stores……
By May 10, we will have entered the 89th week of this “paper pregnancy.” Guanna-To-Be-Julia will be the first child we’ve had without my grabbing some passerby’s lapels and growling “EPIDURRRRAL!” (Though my boss has told me repeatedly that I need to drink more.)
Whoo-whoo, got some more paperwork to do - I guess this is called “labor.”
Hey - It's Us!
