Praise the Lord! Something happened in this whole adoption process, before it actually was supposed to happen... Everything is delayed in Ukraine, but we actually got the boys' passports before we were supposed to get them... strange for Ukraine...
We applied for passports and did not want to pay the fee for passports to expedite them, so we just prayed.. we were told when we applied that if we paid the fee, then we would get the passports or Thursday or Friday...but we decided not to pay... and we still received the passports last Friday! What a great surprise!!! So Monday we are going to take the boys to get their medicals done and then to US Embassy to get their visas... we are almost home..
Yesterday, one of the girls from the orphanage celebrated her birthday here, so she asked me to help her prepare her birthday fiest...it was fun to teach them how to cook and spend time with other kids.. We had a blast!
Tomorrow the orphanage is having a goodbye party for the boys and everyone is invited!
We already have our suitcases almost packed and ready to go...
We definately have a wonderful attorney who helped us thorough this rough journey... We would reccomend her to anyone who needs help with adoption in Ukraine, but most importantly we have a wonderful God who loves us and cares for us and leads us though all tough roads of life..
Blessings to all!

Слава Богу! We indeed have a wonderful God. I'm so glad He has provided the passports for your boys. Have a wonderful time at their going-away party. You are nearly home!
Congratulations on getting the passports! So glad your whole family will be together soon. You have waited very patiently through all of the delays. Keep blogging when you get home, I love to read about how the kids adjust when they get to America.
I'm glad you didn't pay. We just got home on Dec 30, our facilitator told us that passports were the ONE thing that could NOT be "expedited."
Praise God!!
