We have train tickets! (I think!) Tomorrow we will be picked up at 5:20 and will meet our facilitator at the rail station, so I'm assuming it means she found tickets :)

Not sure when we'll have Internet access again, but we have enjoyed reading the well wishes and comments and want to thank everyone who has been praying so hard for our family and for little Daria. We cannot wait to meet her and Daniil!

We should be meeting the kids on Monday after arriving in Kramatorsk. I know we are well-covered in prayer and we continue to thank God for the journey He's brought us on and we will thank Him no matter what we find in Kramatorsk. We hope and pray it will be 2 little ones ready to come home with their forever families :)

    You are both covered in prayer as well as those 2 beautiful angels. Daria has waited so long, so I pray she is the one that will fit perfectly in your family just the way our Lord has weaved it.

    Stay strong and know you have many people praying for you all!!!

  12. You can join the Yahoo group Kramatorsk Adoption - there are about 70 families who have adopted from the baby and kindergarten age orphanages. We adopted from there 6 years ago this Feb. There is internet at the cafe next to the hotel. And the people on the group can refer you to many useful places. Also Mary adopted Daniil with Down who used to be at the same orphanage. And Debs adopted Anya with Down from the same orphanage. Feel free to email me
