Further explanation

Shane made me aware that the last post was very vague and left a lot of questions. So here it is

After about a year and half we finally have a court decision about our Aedyn. The judge ruled in our favor. Simply put, the judge ruled that Aedyn is NOT an indian child so therefore the the ICWA does not apply and the tribe's placement preference request is denied and they do not have the right to intervene in our adoption.

Unfortunately there is a BUT, the tribe can appeal. They have 60 days to do so. We hope they will just quit, but you never know! On the 61st day we can finalize our adoption in court, if there has not been an appeal. So even though we have won this battle, there is the possibility that the war might continue!

Thank God We have won this hurdle! It is a happy day in our household and for our family and for our birthparents, who have been troopers through this entire process.
We are grateful, joyous, and Blessed!
