We have a court date!!


We have court on Monday!!! We would be beyond thilled if they would wave the 10 day waiting period, but we know this is not very likely. I have to say though, we are having so much fun playing with the kids and seeing them interact with each other. We wish we could bring all these kids home with us. They are such great kids. The boys played against the camp next door and they won in both soccer and basketball. We also got to watch a very entertaining talent show competition. The Sumy kids tied for first place. These kids practice kicking the soccer ball for hours against the gym wall and they play in bare feet. It is painful to watch. The little girls here are starting to warm up to Kent. I don't think they quite knew what to think of him at first. Kent has discovered some good eating places here in Sumy, so he is a happy man. They make fresh crepes with either fruit or meats right outside our hotel.

The pictures and comments are great. Good luck with the court day. All the families would sure like to hear the details about what happens at court. Would love to you’re your return flight details so maybe some of the hosting families could be at the airport for your celebratory return.

We echo what the Howicks said -- update your blog with any tidbit of information you can. The rest of us who are getting ready to go really want to know.

You've got a bunch of friends praying for you. Your boy is a charmer and he'll make you proud when he's here. :-)

How exciting to read about your journey. We hope things continue to go well for you. We are still waiting for word about the "age issue". Reading your blog and seeing the pictures really puts a smile on my face and gives me hope. Thanks for sharing. Our best to all of you.

Hey Margie and Kent at least there wasn't an epidural ha ha We are so happy for you and even more so for Misha. He can't know yet what a wonderful family he is now part of. What a blessing for you all. Any idea when you will be returning? Turns out you have had the summer of a life time. We tried to call Doug a few times but he was at scout camp and then the Stevenson reunion. We saw Chey at the team camp at UVU. We finished camps yesterday...YAY we made it through. I can't wait to see you. Have a great time. I love you all. Lori
