We received an e-mail today asking for another visitation with the previous family next Tuesday. Apparently, there was a court date scheduled for sometime next week and the lawyers want one more observation of the dynamics between the kids and the former caregivers before the court appearance.
I wrote back asking for more details, and if the kids were supposed to be there. Miss A did not have to appear in court, due to the practices of the county in which her case was handled, but the others all had to attend every court appearance.
I didn't really receive an answer, just a reply that the lawyer for the previous family/cousins got the date scheduled, as they are still pushing for extended visitation. She did say it was just a status hearing, and not a final-decision-making kind of court date.
So, we'll just keep praying and loving and doing what we do. Maybe we'll know something more about the future after next week, which would be a lovely Christmas present. If not, God knows the plan for these little girls, and for our family, and we'll let Him do the worrying.
I'll be updating when I get any news, of course!
