SENTENCIA!

We just received a call from Helena that we got our Sentencia today. Tomorrow one of us will go pick it up bring it to the Defender of Minors to sign and then it's just a matter of paperwork before we can bring Mariana home! We have a checklist that we couldn't do until the Sentencia came through: get her Colombian passport, travel visa for going to the USA and then on thursday we can hopefully get her examination by the US Embassy Doctor. Best case scenario is that we can have the travel visa on Friday and we're free to go home as soon as Saturday. If there is a delay in getting an appointment or some other unforseen reason (likely) then it could be next tuesday. Yeahhhh!!!! more to follow...
