PINEAPPLES ARE THE BEST!!!

Hello family and friends,

Yesterday Tom and I took the boys to the Doctor in Kampala. This was their second, and final visit. He basically checked their "blue medical books" and made sure everything looked okay. It did, and we were grateful.
We were able to make it to the court house for Tom to listen to the judge read her positive ruling! Tom's case has been fast thus far and what a blessing! Court on Fri, ruling on Tues, and a written on Wed. Amazing!

The lawyer told me not to worry about the additional paperwork my judge wanted. He is new to these cases and was not understanding the process fully and he has since been made aware of what the process actually entails, apparently. He is a man who does what he says, according to track record, and the lawyers have no reason to think he will give anything other than a positive ruling 1 week from today. Good news indeed. So we wait for Wednesday!

We were able to make our way around Kampala to familiarize ourselves with where we will be needing to go for the next steps. Commissioner of Gender's office, Immigration, US Embassy.

Today I played with Adam and put him down for his nap. . . he did not like that! He seems to think that because I am there he can sometimes get away with not exactly following "routine". I have to admit, it is kind of funny to see his little face looking at me expectantly, like when he's eating his lunch, going potty, getting washed off, etc. It's like, "look, you say you're my mom and then you just let them do these things to me, what's up with this?"
ALL the children are super obedient kids. They have their moments of crying, but it's usually because they want to be held, or maybe another toddler took a toy away from them. But they KNOW what is expected of them and they follow their routine completely, it's amazing.

Today we went to an actual sandwich shop where they made smoothies and sandwiches (obviously), in Jinja. It was YUMMY! Put 'Blenders' to shame I have to say. The pineapples here are out of this world!!! I wish I could bring home my very own pineapple bush. Do pineapples grown on bushes? I have no idea. . . how sad is that.

Love to you all!!!!
