A woman named Natasha is staying with us at our *great* guest house. (Love it here!) She is 29 years old and adopting a 9 year old who has been in an institution for many years. Natasha met the girl in 2005. She learned yesterday (after arriving) that the judge may not allow her to adopt because she is not 21 years older than the child (just 20 years older....) PLEASE PRAY. There are exceptions to every rule and this one needs an exception. Natasha loves this sweet girl and the God of the Universe is bigger than this law, particularly when she is SO close. Not to mention the 9 year old who thought she was going home..... (sigh) Pray, pray, pray.
Court is Friday at 10 a.m. and the ruling likely next week. We covet your prayers for this beautiful family.

praying, praying, praying! :)
How did court go? It sure seems like this is a case for some common sense instead of a bright line rule.
