We got an email from the U.S. embassy on Monday morning saying they want to interview the birth mother's father. Remember, Micah's birth mother disappeared after she relinquished him. She did go to the local court for that part and even had witnesses there. One of the documents we have has her father listed as closest relatve. We are thinking they just want to ask him if he knows the whereabouts of his daughter.
This is where we need prayer! Please pray that the orphanage is able to find him very soon. If they can't find him we will tell the embassy that we can't find him. We are not sure what they will say to that. If they find him the earliest appointment for birth relatives is about 2-3 weeks out. I am pretty bummed that I may not get to see our baby for another several weeks, but if they do find him John and I would love to meet him. We want to find out about Micah's birth mother and her family history. We feel that it is very important that we are able to give Micah some sort of picture of his birth family.
I must say this journey has been very stressful!! I am so ready to bring our baby home. Every day that passes is another day that he doesn't have his mommy and daddy to love him. We are very thankful for Sheila and Lesley with our agencies. After a conference call today my stress level was much better!
So.....please pray with us they find the grandfather soon!! To God be all the glory! And we know that the Lord has been and will continue to hold our hands through this!
