Snowday


I woke up this morning to a call from Kevin telling me that there was big snow. Sure enough our first real snow fall since we have been in Ukraine. You will notice Zac in his California shorts.
Yesterday the boys all wrote out their letters of intent to be adopted. Basically stating they met us, want to be adopted and are willing to join our family. They were told that they had a week to change their minds but all 3 adamantly stated they would not change their minds.
Monday we will go to the notary and sign 2 applications to adopt. Then one packet goes to Kiev the other stays in the region until the court day. We should find out some time next week what our court date will be.
Today we will rest a bit, enjoy the snow and go to the school after 2:00 when the boys are out of class. We heard news another family ( a veteran in the process as this will be trip 2 to the Ukraine) will be joining us in a week or so depending on their appointment. It will be nice to see a familiar face. We have been blessed with many new friends in the Ukraine but only 3 people who speak English and we are trying to be sensitive to their time so many times we work with sign language and a hope we are communicating clearly.

  1. On our trip, a "snow day" was the rule, not the exception. We will continue to pray for your journey and safe return.
