an update still can't share much but will soon

We have had the best weather for this trip. I think that June is the best time to come Ukraine as far as weather. Sunny, warm but not to hot and low humidity. Kiev was the same. We are able to enjoy being outside and even riding in the cabs is not to hot.... Our paperwork is moving along...always to the adoptive parents not fast enough but it really has. We had a miracle actually a couple happen yesterday but I am not able to share just yet about them. We do praise the Lord because he has been so evident in this whole adoption. We are adopting 5 children and we know that requires lots of paperwork X 5 if you can imagine. Our team here has been wonderful and we are grateful for their hard work. We don't feel any other team could do this adoption. You can also imagine the questions we get as to why do you want to adopt more ? and why special needs ? It has made the process a little longer but so worth it in the end. We have been so encouraged by our family back home... MK and Molly are doing a great job. Mk especially has encouraged us tremendously with her new, fresh walk in the Lord. I had a feeling the Lord would move in her heart and He has and she has responded in such a Godly way. We feel very blessed by our kiddos at home and with our new ones as well. The girls here keep saying," We prayed for you." Already they are open to the Lord's working and seeing Him answer prayers... Keep praying for us... Specifically that things continue to move along.

You definitely encourage me to go ahead and adopt my fourth child, as you are an inspiration. You are an amazing family!

Thanks SO MUCh for sending me your blog. We are so in awe of how the Lord works in our lives. Praise the Lord things are going well, and can't wait to hear the details. :)

And such wonderful news about another person coming to faith. I just love it when we can be a part of a new life in Christ.
