Adoption Update

Dear Family & Friends

Thank you for your constant prayers and enocouragement!

Almost seven weeks after our initial call informing us of the Paternity suit we have received the following update:

The attorney (Peggy) representing the possible birth father wants a DNA test. Our attorney has written her a letter to challenge her on representing this guy since Peggy and Mike (our attorney) serve on a board together that do their best to keep adoptive children with their adoptive parents.Mike is angry as to why she would represent this guy on something she does not normally stand for nor believe in. So, Mike wants to wait for her response and has advised us not to do a DNA test until they agree not to use the test results in court.

Our prayer all along has been that this guy is not the one! More importantly, we serve a God that directed our path after we acknowledged Him every step of the way while pursuing our little Princess! We pray that He does not allow His gift to us to be taken away!

Please continue to pray for God's will and pray that our attorney will go forth boldly as he speaks for us.

We love and appreciate you!

Michelle & Rick
