Well, we are still waiting to hear about when our court date will be scheduled. In the whole scheme of things this wait is truly a drop in the bucket...but somehow, even knowing that, it still is excruciating!
This past week a number of families had their court dates and some passed, some didn't. The lucky thing for those that did not pass is that their next court dates were rescheduled quickly, most happening within the next few weeks.
This week also heralded another set of care packages making their way to Mekele. At least two families with Embassy dates next week left this past Tues. or Weds. to travel to northern ET before going to Addis for their children. One of those families is carrying another two bags of love for T & R. Inside are some DVDs that teach basic sign language (awesome program called Signing Time that is directed towards young children) and a short video of Colt, I, the boys and the dogs. We humans introduced ourselves in English and Tigrinya, and hopefully didn't butcher the Tigrinya too badly. Hopefully the nannies will play it for the girls and they will get the idea of who we truly are. Hopefully. If not, Noah did a good job of providing comedic relief so it will be entertaining at least!
Let us hope that they all travel safely, that our girls are well and will hopefully understand what we are trying to tell them, and that April will shower us in rain AND court dates!!!!
