Day 6 after court...

We are on day 6 of our waiting period after court. Right now we are not really doing anything that is related to our adoption of our kids. We are just waiting...
The boys, really want to go home already and so do we...its great that we were able to spend so much time together already here in Ukraine...we really feel like they were always a part of our family. They always help out. Dmitri really likes to cook and helps me all the time in the kitchen. Aleks cleans our room and always likes everything to be nice and clean. We went to Kreschatik (main street in Kiev) and saw the huge Christmas tree. It was freezing! Our baby rode a pony around the Christmas tree and asked her daddy to buy her one too!!!
Yesterday, we drove around to different travel agencies with our attorney, to get a good price on tickets back home. Tickets are more expansive one way, than roundtrip! For now, we changed our return tickets to January 25th...please pray that this is enough time and that we can leavce on that date...
Today we went grocery shopping and will make pizza and other dishes for Christmas eve (tonight). Tomorrow, Jan. 7, is Christmas Day here in Ukraine. Everything is closed in Ukraine tomorrow and everyone will be celebrating.
So Merry Christmas (again)!!!!
