Clarity

So today we had a conference call with Jay and Dorothy. Here is where things stand -

1. Diana Montgomery will now be handling the remainder of our adoption.
2. She will file with Gila County the petition to terminate the birthfather's rights.
3. Once the paperwork is submitted it will take at least 20 days possibly(probably) longer for it to be signed and official.
4. When the rights are terminated, Diana will file for our adoption to be finalized. This is an unknown area - we don't know what the judge will want from us. We were told that he would probably want an updated homestudy (more money for us to spend) and possibly more. It is all unknown, so we will just play it by hear and pray that it isn't costly for us to finalize.

PRAYER REQUESTS:

1. Diana Montgomery's wisdom as she prepares paperwork and works with the State Court and Tribal Court.
2. For her to be able to process our petition's quickly
3. The judge would not want to notify the Northern Cheyenne Tribe
   
4. We will only need to travel to Phoenix on one occassion
5. For our finances.

We are so thankful for all of your prayers! We are getting closer!
