Tomorrow is the day!

Well, we have made it through the 10 day wait. We should have "R" with us tomorrow. We will probably leave for Kiev tomorrow night on the overnight train. We are not sure how "R" will be. He has been acting up a bit the last couple of days, especially today, so we are not sure if he is aware that he is leaving tomorrow or not. I hope the adjustment won't be too difficult for him. He really seems to like it there and it has been his home for the last 15 months. We are hoping that it will be much easier once he is with us and we can get into a routine.

We have bought a few clothes but didn't have many options at the mall we went to. Everything in that mall was designer names. We went to the market today and purchased some items but we really need to find a department store which we will try to do tomorrow.

We are soo-oo-oo-o ready to come home. Our return flights are still not confirmed. It has been a challenge dealing with our travel agent at home with the 9 hour time difference. My ticket was purchased with credit card points, so I have to book my seat after the other 3 tickets are booked. I am worried that I may not get on the same flight which would be really terrible. Timing is everything, so we are hopeful it will all fall into place.

Well that is all for today. I will post as soon as I can to let you know how tomorrow goes.

Hope things will all go easily for you tomorrow. We will pray that God will give you an easy way. I know you are so ready to come home and have him all yours all the time.

We are so happy for you all of you!
God has been with you through all this, so know that He will also be with you through the next few steps of getting your new little boy home to Regina with you.
God's blessings on your last few days in Ukraine, and for the flight home.
Keep the faith!

Almost there! Orphanage behavior goes away quickly and the child you see now will be different in two weeks, different in six...May God continue to bless your journey! There is a huge outdoor market in Kyiv over the river, have your facilitator take you there if you have time!

Ahh, just think about that first night when you can all sleep in your own beds... then spend a few days unwinding from your whirlwind adventure. Safe journey and pleasant dreams. Keep me posted as to when your flight arrives in Regina.
