We miss her so much

We just sent of her birthday card and present off to the ukraine today. She will be turning 12 later this month. How we wish we could be with her on her birthday. We have decided to rehost her for the holidays. Yea! that means we will see her again in just under 3 months. We are so hopeful that the Ukrainian Government will take our paperwork in January 2007. (Sooner would be a welcome surprise). We will have to redo some of the documents as they start expiring in January. We are willing to do what ever we need to do to get our daughter home for good. We will post more later. Hopefully she will write soon. Thanks for following our journey.

She back in the Ukraine

We got word today that she made it back to the orphange safe and sound. We miss her SO much. We all had a great time. She likes snokeling and jumping off the boat into the water. She is a little mermaid. We all had a hard time letting her go back. She wanted to know when will she be invited back for winter. We hope and pray that we will be able to go to the Ukriane soon to complete the adoption.
