We are Erik and Jennifer Lankford...married for 11 years! We are the proud parents of Isaac Joseph who was born June 15, 2007 and Hadleigh Jane who was born July 15, 2007. They were placed in our home when they were 10 days old and adopted SEPTEMBER 12, 2008. On November 2, 2010 we welcomed Libby Louise into our family and we couldn't be happier. In July of 2012 we welcomed Isaac's biological brother to our family. Jaiden's adoption finalized on Feb 14, 2013. On November 21, 2012 we welcomed Mollie Ryan in to our home to bring us up to 5 children. We live in Aspermont, TX. I have been doing photography for 9 years. I shoot with the CANON 5D Mark II in hopes of buying the 1D eventually. My favorite lenses are the 70-200 2.8 IS and the 85mm prime! I LOVE LOVE LOVE photographing families, children, newborns, high school seniors and maternity!!

Isaac's Trial Postponed

Well today Erik and his mom went to San Antonio for the hearing this morning at 10:30 only to find out that Isaac's trial had been postponed until MAY 22. Yes that is the same day as Hadleigh's, which to some it may sound great, but that's just 21 more days that something could come up.
Apparently his case worker and her supervisor had to be out on an "EMERGENCY" removal of a boy from his home and they MUST be present for the trial. Thankfully they have reassured us that everything is still going as planned. His biologicals have not shown up which is great for us.
It's just so frustrating, but maybe something good will come of it. I was unable to make it to this one and I was a little upset about that so as they say "The Lord works in mysterious ways". Maybe He just knew how much I wanted to be there. That is about the only positive thing I can think of right now.

That sounds like a good "positive" to me. Maybe you are being set up to have "double" the joy on the 22nd???

It's going to be here before you know it!!! Lauren's right. I love that, "double the joy!" Lankford's day of happiness!

I know it can be frustrating but we are claiming in the name of Jesus that those babies are YOURS FOREVER so while we want to confirm that NOW - what's 21 more days in the grand scheme of things?? heehee :) And I agree with Lauren and Tawny - double the joy! And yippee that now you get to be there for both of their trials! Keep up the positivity Jenn - you are in the homestretch!
