SDA Appointment DONE!!

Yay! Thanks to all those who prayed for us...our SDA appointment was literally 5 minutes. Our kids were like, "What, we're done, that's it...we didn't even get to play our DS!" Although they were not thrilled with the brevity of the appointment, we were! ; ) They had the boys' pictures out and ready to go, we just had to answer maybe two or three questions! We are thrilled! Thank you God! So, tomorrow we will get the referral for the boys around 3:00 pm, we will drive to their village (1 1/2 hours) and then we will hopefully get all their signatures and paperwork done and will get to meet with the Child Protective Services person in their region. That will get the ball rolling for the court date. The orphanage director, Nicolai, said we could pick the boys up tomorrow and take them with us! YAY!!!! We get to spend the weekend with them here in our apartment in Kiev! We are thrilled! So far, so good. God has been very merciful to us, and we are truly thankful. May He receive all the glory.
