I was just on the Skype (computer video conferencing) with Cory, Libby, Cass, and the kids, when the phone rang at their hotel. It was David (Lucia's son) calling to tell Cory that we are finally getting our appointment with the judge today for our final decree (permanent legal custody of the kids)! To say that was exciting to see unfold on the video was an understatement! Wow, after six weeks of waiting out the strike, it seemed like this day would never come. Thank you all for your thoughts, prayers and kind words of encouragement throughout this ordeal, it's meant a lot too us all.
Cory has been in Colombia now for just about eight weeks and has been doing an incredible job with the help of Cass, and Libby the last month. Two months of chasing kids around the mean streets of Bogota. Nothing quite prepares you for that, but Cory has done an incredible job and has maintained a smile on her face through it all.
So the great new is that after the final decree is in hand there are only about four more days of paperwork and appointments to get the kids their passports and US Visas. That means that everyone might be home by the middle of next week. Today is a very good day!
