Well today was our first court date, and unfortunately MOWA (Ministry of Woman's Affairs) didn't show up. They claim to have been at a workshop all day Friday and today. For an organization that has so many training sessions and workshops, you would think they would have their "stuff" together!
So, we are looking at Wednesday, May 19th for our second court date. Please keep us in your thoughts!
On another really great note, I had my first baby shower today at work! My co-workers and friends went above and beyond. Again, I am so blessed to work at ESC! A big huge thank you to Stephanie for putting so much work into the lunch. Especially after just getting back from vacation on Saturday! You are an amazing friend!!!
I will keep everyone posted on our second court date! Thanks again for all of your support!
