Hi Everyone,
Yesterday morning we met with the adoption ministry and selected a 16 month old girl who is approximately 6 hours from Kiev. Today is a holiday so we are not able to meet her at the orphanage until Monday morning.
We do not know much about her other than she is supposedly healthy and small for her age as she was born premature. We will receive more info once we arrive to the orphanage.
We have hired a driver with a van to drive us to the city where she is. We leave Kiev Sunday morning and should arrive late in the afternoon to our new apartment. That will allow us time to get settled in before things start on Monday.
If all goes well we hope to post pictures of her next week. While at the orphanage we are going to try our best to get another girl (or two). Right now that is our best option to getting two children.
We hope all is well with all of you. Things here in the Ukraine are very different from the States. Please keep our future girl (s) in your prayers.
Pam and Steve

I'm sure you are on pins and needles waiting for Monday...I guess a few days is nothing in comparison to a few years of waiting! What a wonderful day it will be! Thinking of you - can't wait to see the pictures...
Good luck! I am very excited for you guys!
Love,

I'm so excited for you. I know you are waiting to see what is next and so are we. Just keep us informed. I want to hear all about the country and your experiences. Can't wait to see a picture(s) of the girl(s)!
16 months sounds like a great age. We're so excited about your "beginning." We'll keep praying for 2 ... or were you considering 3?!

Wow! I'm so excited for you both! Your little girl would be about the same age as Gracie and Tessa - wouldn't that be fun. I sure hope it goes well - you'll probably want to take them all home. I love that you created this blog site and I wish you the best as you continue this journey.
Hi Steve and Pam I am so excited for you guys! We have been following up with you everyday since Al and Fern told us about this. God Bless and good Luck with everything.
