We are so so happy... we got our clearance from the ICPC to bring Karlee across state lines. We of the phone call yesterday from our social worker that all paperwork has been received and accepted. Yesterday February 21, exactly 2 weeks from the day Karlee was born. What a nightmare some of these past hours and days have been. More good news... The Adoption Agency has also received today, the birth fathers paperwork relinquishing his parental rights. So Karlee is OURS!!! I don't know what to be more excited about being able to leave and come home or that all the paperwork is accounted for. So So many prayers have been answered. We have been so blessed. After hearing the news that we could leave, we didn't want to waste another minute. We got online and started trying to find flights back to Las Vegas. A couples days ago we had found some super cheap flights, that we debated getting, but since we had no news on where our paperwork was at we had to pass them up. We looked online yesterday for 4-5 hours trying to find any flights. We would find a flight and then by the time we decided on getting it, the flight was no longer available. We had become super super stressed out and frustrated to say the least. But we were able to finally find one that would get us to Salt Lake City. We jumped at the flight. We flew into SLC this afternoon, Monica came over to pick us up and has been such a great host. Karlee was so so good on the plane, we were actually in the same plane for the whole trip, We flew from Charlotte NC, to Atlanta GA, to Phoenix AZ, to Salt Lake City UT. What an extremely long day, but so so worth it. My dad is coming up tonight to drive us down to St. George on Sunday. So many people have helped us get home, that I am so grateful for. It has been quite the adventure.
