Day 13

Well to all you who have been praying over use, a huge and eternal thank you. There is no doubt in our mind that there has been some spiritual warfare that has taken place over the last 24 hours and the God's hand has moved in our situation. Were we stand now is we are his legal guardians, but we cannot leave the country with him. With that said the solution is relatively simple. We are required to go back to court and go through the process all over again, but this time will be easier since we already have guardianship, and the ruling, and we are only correcting a few affidavits. We meet with the attorney today and he is hoping to have a cost to everything in the morning when we meet again at 9am. He is planning on having the documents all drafted by the end of the day on Friday and then allow for the correct people to sign then and return them on Monday and resubmit for a new court date by Tuesday. This is best case scenario and we know that with God it will happen.With all that said today was an eventful beside the whole court thing. We had our first of two doctor appointments for a USA Visa for Ethan; we know he is built like a tank. He is only 2'11" and tips the scale at 42 lbs. This puts him in the lower 10 percentile for kids his age for height (welcome to the Kulp family) and he is actually not even on the chart for weight the chart has a max of 40 lbs. Well, better stock up the pantry when I get home. The doctor also had to take a blood sample, which meant pricking his finger to draw blood. That thumb was out for everyone to know it was hurt for about 2 hours after the small pin prick took place. He sure knows how to milk sympathy from mommy.After the doctor’s office, we meet the people we are staying for coffee and we discovered that glass ash trays do not make very good hats and they tend to fall and shatter when they hit the ground. As does glass cups that Ethan likes to play with once the soda is gone. We then went over to the mall to kill time till lunch; they have a play area for the kids to play with, which was the first time Ethan got to down a slide. He loved it, although the shaky bridge did scare him so daddy had to pick him up and place him on the slide, which I think is not the point of the kids play stuff. I thought it was for the kids to get exercise not the parents.After lunch we went to the attorney's office which I already mentioned what we talked about with him, but the outcome is that we will be going back to court next week hopefully. With this our time over here is going to be extended. Daddy will be leaving here on the 8th late in the evening and then getting home mid afternoon on the 9th and it is unclear as to when mommy and Ethan will be leaving since we need the court documents to be able to be able to get the passport which we need before we can get a VISA. So our trip just got longer, yeah, no.This is just our journey to have a wonderful happy little boy, it is not a negative thing it is the truth and when it is all said and done I am sure we would not trade it for the world.
