Day 11- We will not be leaving for awhile

Well,
As we have learned on this trip, no one knows what they are talking about, and you only get answers if you ask. Today is friday and we have been asking every day when our court date will be. So again I called and our translator called the lawyer. They said it will be on Tuesday at 10am. The facilitator had said that it would be today or monday. He also told us that we should be out of here December 21st or 22nd. Well its more like December 31st. It seems people just make up answers they think you want to hear. That does not help us. We need real answers. First off we are not rich Americans which I think many of these people think we are, we do not have thousands of dollars to throw at them every time they ask, and we don't have the money to stay here for ever. Second we count on these people for answers and guidance. We don't know how things work here, or the system. This is so frustrating to me. Poor Tyler had to watch me crumble for the 3rd time this week. I am to tired to take any more "unknowns". I want to get my babies and leave. period. Please forgive my negativity and please just pray for us. Please pray that the Lord will give me the strength to get it together and for him to keep Tyler strong as he has been. I am so thankful for the man he gave me to be my husband. Hunter has been so sweet and understanding and just going with the flow.

Last night I googled, eye conditions with kids with down syndrome and I am pretty sure Emma has alot of eye problems. But it explains why her eyes do the things they do. I think with surgery and glasses and the other eye treatments, she will be wonderful. This was really encouraging to me, I was worried that it was severe mental retardation...which it still may be, and thats ok. But I think it is not her mental status but eye problems. She was so happy today and didn't whimper much. She giggled and loved being put in different positions. Asher was the one today who was getting upset every time he tried to cough. Our little boy needs medical help, but that will have to wait another 2 weeks now. Please pray that the Lord will protect them and sustain them!!

I know I ask this in every post but please just keep praying for us, that God would sustain us spiritually, financially and in our health. That Emma and Asher will be ok until they can see a doctor. And that we can get them out of here on the December 31st flight!!! Thank you all!!
