We are going to India!

Well, after several days of not knowing, and a bittersweet Thanksgiving (since Uma was supposed to be home by then), we finally confirmed the news today that the order was given and we have been granted custody!
December 5, the judge is supposed to sign the written order and then it takes about a week or so for the court to scrutinize and copy everything and then the written order is sent to the orphanage where the lawyer there will apply for Uma's passport. We are told that it will be best that we travel sometime after Christmas and so we are now in the process of trying to arrange plane tickets and hotel accommodations for a very busy time to travel! We are praying that we will be able to get it done and travel as close to Christmas as possible.
I will post again once our travel dates are set.
