I just got the phone call that our embassy appt. is July 3. The embassy is closed on July 4, so we can't pick up the visa until the 5th, and fly home on the 6th. The embassy here assured our senator that we would receive a faster appt. I just called the embassy and left a message telling them our situation. Andrew and the boys will be here June 24-29. We can't afford to change the airline tickets and have them stay 2 weeks. I am just crying. I don't know if I can stand them leaving me here for another week. Please pray that the embassy workers' hearts are softened and that they grant us an earlier appt. Anne Pearce goes to her final drs' appt. tomorrow afternoon. After that is over we can have an appt. at any time. Andrew is going to the embassy Monday morning to plead our case. Please pray! I miss my family and friends so much and am SO ready to be home. I'm fine here with Nat.....I just miss normal life......I just don't know how I will take Andrew leaving me, but if I have to I will do it!

Donna
Let's hope Andrew is very persuasive on Monday!!
I can't wait to see pictures on Monday of the whole family!!
We will be praying for a sooner appointment!! Don't give up girl, look how far God has brought you so far. Everything will turn out just as he has planned!
Love in Christ,

I agree with Donna though, I would call your Senator again!! :)
Praying for you! Hang in there...you're almost home...
We are praying that they change the apt. and you ALL can come home on the 29th!! Remember, God IS in control even when it does not feel like it. "For I know the plans that I have for you, declares the LORD, plans to prosper you and not harm you to give you a future and a hope." (Jer. 29:11)
Love you both, Lisa
Lou,
I am so sorry. I hope the embassy is able to work something out for you! You will remain in my prayers.

As hard as this is right now, you need to believe that everything will go according to God's plan for you. He will not let you down. I know it's hard to see the good in this but I just know that He's working something out for you and your family that will benefit all of you. Stay strong,you WILL get through this!
Praying that you get that date changed!!!
Lou--hey I will be praying for you and that Embassy date to be changed!!!!
Hey I am catching up and you guys are the cutest!!!!!!!!! Anne Pearce is just the sweetest thing and you are too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I cannot wait for all of your family to be reunited!!!!!!!!!!!! hugs to you girlie!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh sweetie! I am so sorry! Can you get back in touch with your Senators office and see if there's anything they can do to get an earlier appt?? I'm praying.....
Lou, I am so sorry for the extra time you will need to wait for your appointment. Today I layed my hands on yours and AP's picture and prayed for God to speed things up, but if that was not in His grand plan, I asked Him to help you understand and to strengthen you. He DOES have a plan you know. I know your heart is broken. Mine breaks for you as I type this to you. Please know that there is a reason. All is not said and done just yet, either. So keep looking up and let God do his work. He is so good and He loves you so much and He is honoring you and your family for this wonderful step you have taken to bring this beautiful child into your family. Keep the faith and know you are completely covered in prayers.
Lovealee,
Mimi
Sorry Lou - we're all praying for you and for a faster pink!! I love you!!
Hang in there, Lou! You'll make it through!
Tim and I are praying for you and AP! My heart is breaking for you! We will definitely send up some prayers tonight for you guys! Hang in there!
Love, Tim and Bethany and Sarah Caroline
Lou, I am praying that you can get the earlier embassy appt and fly home with the rest of your family. Thanks for being such a wonderful help and support to Natalie.
Sweetie, you know that if I hadn't just lost my job I would book a plane ticket and come stay that last week with you. Hold on, hold on. God is faithful. You've pulled me through so much lately, I just wish I could do more for you. I love you.
