And We Wait...

Foreign adoption is so funny. Rush. Rush. Rush. Get lots of paperwork done and then wait. We spoke with our adoption agency earlier this week to see what is the next step. We found out we are waiting for the initial court hearing. We gave Olga in Bryansk power of attorney to represent us in Russian adoption court for the initial hearing. (If we had not done this we would have to make 4 trips to Russia!) Russian adoption court gives her 2-4 weeks notice of the court hearing. Hand In Hand is communicating with Galina to see if she can get the court to give her any kind of an idea when they might schedule the preliminary hearing... So... for that we wait...
