"I am sorry to report that your court date must be postponed. The judge in _______ is working on a trial that is taking quite a bit of time and will not be able to hear your case until after the trial has been completed. We have been told that court should still be scheduled for June; however, we have not been given a new date or travel schedule yet. Frank Foundation has indicated that the judge should be able to hear your case later in June, around the 25th. We will be in touch as soon as we get more information about the new travel dates. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Brent or me."
We knew this was a possibility, we were just hoping it wouldn't happen. I don't know if we will get her home before her birthday now or not. And in the meantime, she sits in an orphanage. I won't say she is waiting for us. She's not. She has no idea that we are doing our best to bring her home. But she's there...living her life in and orphanage. A good orphanage, as far as orphanages go, but an orphanage is not a home and caregivers will never take the place of parents.
Sadness.

Where are we in our China adoption journey?
Our dossier was logged in by the CCAA on December 25th, 2007. The current wait from LID to referral for a non-special needs child is around 8 years. Our dossier has been translated and is now in line for the Review Room, where the Chinese govt. will officially approve us to adopt. We are likely looking at another 6 years or so before we receive our referral if it even happens that quickly.

S, I'm very sorry to hear of this delay. I hope that they will be able to reschedule you as soon as possible. I also hope you can be with her on her birthday, even if it's not in your home.

Hang in there..... it sucks...
Sorry to hear about this...Hang in there.
I stumbled upon your blog from the blanket you are making. It has been almost 5 years since my daughter and I traveled to Tomsk so she could adopt my precious granddaughter, who turns 6 in a month. All the hurdles you go through are so worth it. I don't know your story, just started to read, but, hang in there. Luiza was in the most immaculate orphanage I could ever imagine. She was 17 months when we arrived home. She is a joy. We all live together. My daughter adopted her as a single mother. I am the stay at home grammie to Luiza and her 3 cousins. Life is good
