Ryan was out when he got the call so he rushed home and shared the news immediately. It was a huge surprise because we have been hearing "not today" regularly around 10am each day for several weeks. (Ethiopia is ahead of us by 7 hours so if we didn't hear good news by 10, we knew it wasn't happening that day.) However, for whatever reason, our caseworker called around 3:15, shocking us all. I had just picked up the kids from an overnight time with their Nana and Papa so thankfully the kids were home too. It was perfect timing that we were all together! (We were grateful to all be together when we received the referral call as well.)
We will find out Monday (hopefully) when our court date is. At this point, we are hoping we can make one trip, staying in country and bring the kids home after about two weeks.
Our hearts are overjoyed. Praising God that our prayers were answered!
