Well, as much as we had hoped everything could be accomplished before Ukraine shuts down for months, it looks like it is impossible. The dossier would have to be sent out by next week and that just can't happen. We have done everything humanly possible.....there are just factors out of our control! We trust God has a plan for the timing of everything : )
Some good news is that Reece's Rainbow has told us that this particular orphanage keeps the kids there until the age of 6. So even though Julia will be 4 next month, she will stay put! Yay!! They have also told us that the orphanage "most certainly knows we are coming for her."
We are also encouraged that another family adopting two boys from the same room Julia is in, will be over there before the holidays. They will be able to see how she is doing and maybe get some more pictures for us!!
Why is it shutting down, holidays? Praying. I know God's timing is perfect but man do I wish it were quicker sometimes ya know. Be blessed

Sometimes God's timing is so hard to understand... I hope you are able to get new pics!
ReplyDeleteim so sorry to hear that! but deeply touched by your family's faithfulness. i was reading 'amy and friends' website today and learned a lot about cockayne syndrome. will be praying for your family and baby julia. cant wait to see her in your arms!
ReplyDeletewe are waiting for our angel too. working our way through the process. our little girl was a victim of shaken baby syndrome =( and is now severely disabled, but very sweet and beautiful.
So sorry that Ukraine is shutting down for awhile! Praying everything goes smoothly so that once it reopens, you'll be all ready to GO!!!
