Good News, I Hope

Here is the latest word from our attorney:

Nothing has been served on us, and 30 days have passed. We are filing a motion for default (you will not have to be there). After it is heard, we will get a court date for a hearing on the merits.

I believe that the motion for default is just to say we sent notification and got no response. We want the judge to accept that as sufficient notification so that we don't have to go and try to find the birth mother in person. So that is our specific prayer now. I don't have a timeline as to when this motion will be heard.

The Lord has gotten us through the first hurdle, and I cling to the promise that He that has began a good work in me will carry it on to completion.
