Adoption Update

Back in December I reported bad news about Keira’s teacher’s adoption. It ended up that Little Girl had to go back to Mexico for only 8 days instead of 3 weeks. They did grant her a new temporary Visa, but of course not until the holidays were over, so she had to spend the holidays alone in the orphanage.

BUT, last weekend, Ms. Lupita went back to Mexico to talk to the brand new judge who has been assigned this case. And this guy actually has morals and feelings! He met with Ms. Lupita on a Saturday, which is a huge deal. He had to cancel their meeting on Friday because his mother is gravely ill . . . but he made the trip back to the city on Saturday to meet with Lupita because he said what had happened and what was happening was ridiculous and had to end with a happy adoption.

Soooooo, it was in his hands. He was working with New Hampshire (sorry, not Mass. as I previously reported) to get the birth certificate thing all straightened out - and he even admitted NH is a state ;-) He’s very actively involved in all aspects of the adoption rather than making Ms. Lupita do it all herself and battle the system from afar. She is going back to Mexico in a couple weeks to hopefully finalize the entire adoption and be done with the mess.

Prayers for Ms. Lupita and her family that this adoption is finalized SOON!
