Today was busy but drama-free. Baba Sundi is busy simplifying and streamlining everything to get ready for May 23rd, along with other busy work. Mama Sundi is back to intense home-schooling. Both kids have learned a ton. Sundi is getting very good with numbers, and Damon now knows what sounds all of the letters in the alphabet make! They have no idea how lucky they are to have such a good teacher!
Sundi's speech continues to improve, although it will take a lot of time to fully recover from 4 years of comparative silence coupled with muffled sounds. Getting her the new hearing aid she needs and then getting her into auditory therapy (as opposed to speech therapy) will be extremely helpful. Unfortunately, to the best of our knowledge there are currently no auditory therapists in Kenya. We will need to find one very quickly as soon as we come home; if anyone knows a good auditory therapist, please let us know.
Many of you have asked about what the successful court date last Friday means. We'll take a stab at answering that one tomorrow. But in short, we believe it is great news for our family. 9 days to go....thanks for all of your support.

Hi, Jeromy and Kim! Jeromy, I am a friend of your Dad's - as a fellow insurance agent, I've known him for about twenty-some years. I've been following your story ever since he and I talked a few weeks ago and he gave me your website. I just want to let you know that my church congregation has made your situation a matter of prayer, and my parents and I have spread the word to friends, family and church members throughout the U.S. - from coast to coast, folks are praying for you, your children, and with concern for the adoption process in Kenya. Thank you for everything you are doing, and for sharing God's spirit of love in places many of us will never be able to visit.
