Court Day!

Whew, what a day! First and foremost we are thrilled to say that court was a success and we are now beginning our 15 day appeal period. We have been assured that this is not anything to worry about and it is safe to say we are Wyatt’s parents. What an excellent feeling to know that Wyatt is now our son…officially! Our court time was 10 am. After a while of waiting (okay, about1 hr), the judge and prosecutor came in. It was a short hearing, Hallelujah, and then we waited to hear her decision (this usually takes maybe 15 minutes). The prosecutor stated he approved our petition to adopt. The judge concludes by saying, please return at 3:00 to hear her decision. At this point, we’re waiting for someone to tell us we are on Candid Camera. We were again assured that this is nothing to worry about, and sure enough they were right. At approximately 3:15 the judge accepted our petition to adopt our son.
After court we headed straight to the baby house. Wyatt was full of smiles when he saw us…little did he know what a huge day this was for him as well. His caregiver said he had been looking for us the past few days. We missed him so much and cannot wait to bring him back to the US!
After the baby house, we headed to Buharah for a celebration dinner and drinks. We cannot thank the Little Miracles staff enough for their wonderful service. Our coordinator and translator are unbelievable and we couldn’t imagine this experience without them. They truly make dreams come true.
