WOOOOOHOOOOOOO!!!

C is now available for adoption by L!!! IT's been almost a year that C has been in limbo with abondonment charges against his mother. He's been tossed back and forth, he's ha visitation then no visitation... but now, as of 4pm on Friday, 26.Jan, 2007, Christian's mothers rights were terminated.

I want to say now that I don't advocate terminating everyone's parental rights when they enter in the system, but this woman bondoned her 5 children, gave the 6th up for adoption, all of the children's fathers were illegals except her little girl. She was gone for something like 8 months before school officials firugred out something was wrong when the older two children (13 and 15 at the time) were taking turns skipping school to take care of the younger 3 (aged 5, 3.5 and 2 again at the time). This woman had no concern until they said they were going to criminal action, then suddenly she wanted her children back. The 3.5 yr old went to live with his father in Mexico, the 5 yr old lived with L until they could locate her father, to which now she lives happily in FL with her father, and C was the only one left.

After 3 grueling weeks of waiting for the court hearing, the case was heard on 8.Jan, 2007 and we just recieved a ruling!

I am celebrating. L now has 2 boys! 3.5 and 21 months. Both adopted, well C is going to be adopted as soon as it is legally possible!

YAY!!!!!!

Happy that little guy is now in a family!! Also, I think this is under the wrong post, but we are adopting 2 in Far East Siberia....extra $1,000 US per person for each trip from Russia to this area (Magadan), and we have been pinching pennies!! We are estimating our costs to be around $40,000, and if we are lucky, we will keep it to $38,000....we are trying, at least. We have just finished trip one. Please read our blog, and if you like it, would you mind posting it on your site??

Thanks so much,

Good luck!! Remember....God has timing that is perfect for you!!
