Update

We got word this morning that our court date has been rescheduled for this Monday. We pray everything goes smoothly this time. Once it is done and over with, I will go into explanation of what exactly happened. Until then, I can say it had nothing to do with our paperwork.

We have visited Bryson everyday except for yesterday. He seems to be bonding very well with the both of us and is now excited when they bring him in the room and he sees our faces. We brought some of our clothes and shoes with us to try on him and he is much smaller than we anticipated. He appears to still be wearing 9 months clothes. We have walked all over town trying to find baby clothes stores, but there aren't many stores that sell baby clothes. It gets harder each day to leave him.

I am praying everything goes well on Monday. I know you can't wait to bring Bryson home. Once he's home he'll grow from the love everyone gives him.

Take care!!
