One little step closer

We found out late last week that all our paperwork has officially been submitted to the Bryansk courts and they have not asked for anything else. Of course things can always change in this process but we are told this is one of the points where you can hit delays if they ask for more paperwork. Since they didn't, we are taking this as a good sign. One step down, a bunch more to go! Now it will be at least a couple more weeks (or more) before we hear about a preliminary court date, which is the next step before we get the date to travel. We are hoping things continue to go smoothly so we can bring Aaden home sooner rather than later.
