Encouraging news

After a discouraging Friday, Saturday was much brighter. On Friday I was wondering if Haiti was going to shut all adoptions down and if Reese would ever come home.

There are five remaining Minnesota families waiting for their adopted children from Haiti. Senator Amy Klobuchar has taken a great interest in our cases and adoption in general. We had a conference call with her on Saturday. She was awesome! She wasn't in a hurry, and wanted each of us to tell her our stories. She had been in Haiti on Friday. She was one of the few members of Congress that was chosen to go to Haiti. She asked the Prime Minister in a room packed with people if he had any of intention of stopping the adoptions that are in process. He told her no. She also specifically asked him about the Minnesota cases and asked about our children by name. The Prime Minister assured her that he would look at their cases as soon as he could. Senator Klobuchar also spoke of wanting to help Haiti establish their future adoption practices, which is fantastic. I am confident that she will see this through to the end. She spoke of wanting to meet the children when they are home. Tonight I am thanking God for Amy Klobuchar and using her to bring our kids home! Praying that this is the week...
