Adoption...the latest

Ironic that I just posted about spiritual warfare and now about the adoption process "stuff". Here's what's happening....

• The opinion from our evaluations that were done here in Poznan was great. After being completed it was sent to the court.
• The court sent the evaluation, along with ALL of our documents, to a different agency in Warsaw for approvals.
• That agency (we found out last week) sidestepped their involvement in this and said that we needed to work with the first agency...the one that wrote the damaging letter several months ago after having ZERO contact with us prior. Yes, ZERO.
  
• Our lawyer called this first agency to talk with their director and got the same story as before, even though the evidence has grown (and incidentally is 100% Polish now...before a lot of evaluations were foreign...they can't use that excuse any longer as they did before). The director said even with all of this proof she will not change her opinion. Keep in mind that she has NEVER met us NOR the kids. Read my spiritual warfare post if you'd like more info on this one.
• Our lawyer was writing a letter at the end of last week to the judge asking him to make this decision without the involvement from Warsaw since they are obviously set up against us and will not even consider the evidence that is before them.
• The kids' case worker will be trying to meet with the judge either today or tomorrow to talk about this issue as well. She is working with the judge in the same way the lawyer is...trying to get this resolved as quickly as possible.

That's the long story of it all. We are waiting (sound familiar) for some phone call that will hopefully come today or tomorrow. We have gone a long time without any word but now that we are approaching an ending we all really want to hear something.

We'll send out an email and post something when we hear. Please pray for the judge. Really everything rests on his shoulders now.

Thank you all so very much!!
