Have enough patience yet?

Today we walked from the guest house to the court house. We arrived to find a large number of military men guarding all sides of the court house- sidewalks, gates, walk ways- every thing. They were not about to let us in saying court was closed and all cases were postponed. What? Well we tried to tell them we were told just yesterday we have a court date set for today, Brenda is leaving today... finally i just mentioned our lawyers name and we were passed the first guy. I learned my lesson- at the next gate we started with the lawyers name- ushered right through.

We had to wait a little for our lawyer to come but we did meet Jerry's biological family already there waiting for us. Not too long and our lawyer showed up pulled us into a room and had a good talk with all of us and especially complimented Brenda and I on our beautiful African clothes. Around 9:45 we were called into the judges chambers. She heard part of our case and assigned it again for the same time next Wednesday. More patience. It is not a no so we keep moving forward. Our lawyer still seems confident and we keep praying. And learning more patience.
