GREAT NEWS!!!!!

Well where do we begin???
We've had an extremely busy day and it is not over yet. Kaiden has managed very well with the long waits and unscheduled routine.
We had our third appointment today and things went well we are all bubbling with excitement!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! After waiting for over 3 hours we have been proposed a healthy child and at good age. This child lives in Dnipropetrovsk which is about 500 kms away from Kiev (about a 10 hour train ride.) This means that we are travelling by train tonight at midnight to this city. We plan on meeting our child tomorrow. Once we have seen the child and accepted this child we will post the details.
We are hoping to have internet at the new apartment so that we can post as early as tomorrow evening.
Well we are packing up and getting ready for the move. We are all trying to deal with the excitement of the day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We will post again ASAP!

I was so excited to hear your news! I read your earlier blogs and realize that your journey has required lots of patience. Punta Cana is a paradise. Seven days of eating delicious food and drinking cocktails on the beach. Our villa was two minutes from the beach. Everyone had a wonderful time. Our kids met friends from Ontario and Quebec and met them often for various social activities. I gained 4 pounds and even had a motorcycle ride at 3:30 in the morning. I cried when we had to leave! But I plan to go back next year. You sound so close to having your new "sweetie". Take care and all the best. Linda C.

CONGRATS!! Wow am so excited that is such a wonderful day to meet your child on my birthday!! When I was catching up on your blog last night I though good luck will arrive on the 30th. I was having trouble getting my comment sent my password somehow didn't work. Ray is taking me to Broadway dinner theatre tomorrow night. We got back from my parents last night. Dawson has been reading the blog with me and he says hi, the biggest thing on his mind is Jeremy have you won any UNO games? You were keeping him in suspense!! lol that was something that he enjoyed reading. I was waitin for the hint at the end... oh well
Good luck - oh can't wait to hear back from you guys..

I am very excited for all three of you, not to mention this child who will be so blessed to be part of your family, God willing.

I hope you will be able to sleep on the train, but with the excitement I don't know if I would be able to!

Good luck tomorrow,
Jen

Now that's the news we have all been waiting for (minus a couple of details of course)! I know, you have been patient and we need to be patient also, right? I have been at work since very early this morning and could not wait to come home and hear from you. It is almost 11:00 p.m. here so I would assume that your trip is over or almost over. I hope that your transition from place to place goes smoothly and that your meeting tomorrow is everything that you have dreamed it would be. It is my Dad's last treatment tomorrow so it is truly a remarkable day all around. May God continue to bless you abundantly. We love you all!

P.S. Give Kaiden a great big hug for us. I could not possibly be more excited for you guys. CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!! XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO

Jeremy and boys,
I hope you are journaling all of this. Your family has certainly been through interesting times. You will have stories to tell.
I wish you many blessings, joy and good fortune in your travels to meet your new addition. I pray that all works out. I pray that everyone there is healthy and happy! I'm sure you are experiencing a whole range of emotions at this point. God bless you all.
