What Happens Next?

So, we had set a goal to begin contacting immigration attorneys about Brooke's return to America. We were going to begin looking for Visa help in January but I just couldn't wait. I started looking last week.

We contacted two attorneys to begin with. One is local and seems interested but wants to review some laws first and will get back to us this week. Another is in a different state but speaks Thai. He asked some questions and i've not heard back. We're nervous of course and sure this will cost a fortune....but this is our child! We want our daughter back!

We've talked alot about our future trip to Thailand and wonder what that will look like. Will things be in order when it's time to go? Will things be in order over there so that Brooke will be released? Are they going to give us trouble at the last moment? How long will we need to be there? Will she still want to come home? So many more thoughts....but I just have a hard time putting words to it all. In Psalms David said "Before a word is on my tongue you know it completely." This is my prayer most days when I just have no words.
