Due to the fact that we didn't visit the boys before their adoptions were approved, they came home on a visa. (not as US Citizens) Long story short, we have to apply to re-adopt them, which also gives us the opportunity to legally change their first names. Once we stand before the judge, we will be able to apply for US Citizenship. Since we started Liam's adoption 3 months after bringing Callum home, we had thought it was a good idea to just wait and do both boys at the same time. 3 years later we are now able to do both boys:0)
Anyway, we received a letter in the mail and of course, my heart was pounding. All I could think was that something was wrong with the paperwork etc. If you know our history, you can understand my feeling here. I never used to be a pessimistic person:0) Anyway, the letter from our lawyer stated that our court date is February 17th!!!!! We started this process with our state side lawyer at the end of August, so it does just go to prove that nothing goes quickly in any country. That is also 3 days after our 10 year wedding anniversary. What a wonderful present that will be for us!!!! What a blessing this will be!!!!!
