Finally... we leave in the morning (Saturday the 23rd). We'll get into Kiev in the middle of Sunday afternoon and have 2 and a half days to kind of relax before our ministry appointment Wednesday morning.
Starting Monday, we plan to post to this blog every other day or perhaps daily concerning our travels. Hopefully, on Thursday or Friday we'll be posting photos of children (or a child).
I know many of you reading this have been through or are currently in the adoption process. For the rest of you let me tell you what an emotional roller coaster ride this is! We seem to have tremendous mental, emotional, and spiritual mood swings more than once a day. We can't wait for the next week to pass and some of the unknown goes away.
Thanks so much to everyone who has left us a comment or sent a personal email. And thanks to everyone who dropped off donations for the orphanage. We're taking 4 full bags and plan on leaving everything there but our clothes (which could have easily fit into a single bag, believe it or not). Of course, we'll be returning with new "luggage" in the form of a new member (or members) of our family.
Keep us in your thoughts and prayers.
