We had our appointment yesterday and it all went well. The lady who saw us was very nice. I was surprised she did not ask us one question. She showed us Lena's picture and told us that her file said she is a very nice girl, likes to sing and can play the piano, and really wants a family very badly.
We did not get the papers to travel yesterday we are waiting for it today. The director has to sign off on it. We hope to have it in hand at 5:00 and then we head to the region.
I will probably not be able to post for a day or two. The next time I do it will be after we have met Lena. Please pray all goes well we really need to get a court date quickly as Mark has to be back at work.
This is the story of our 8 children. Our first 4 children were given to us by birth, our second 4 were waiting for us in Russia and Ukraine when we brought them home as teens.
I check your blog everyday. I am friends with J and D and S and T. We hosted a boy at the same time they hosted the children the have now from the region you are going to get L. I have always heard wonderful things about her and seems she has had a lot of people working to find a whome. It sounds like you are just what she needs! My e-mail is kaglazener@att.net
ReplyDeleteLena sounds like a GEM. Best of LUCK in your travels and that all goes smoothly with the court system over there. I especially am wishing you instant chemistry with your daughter. May it be mutual love at first sight!
ReplyDeleteabout time something went smoothly! like I said, at this point they ought to just say "it's the Bobingers again--pass them through!" I pray you will have a wonderful first meeting and that everything will progress quickly to bring all of you home!
