Good News

Stephen called me at the airport before I boarded, he had a call from the Embassy so I didn't have to fly back. Thank gosh!

The fingerprints were processed today at 12pm est and after many phone calls to congressional support they were sent over a little before 12am Ukraine time. Its the first time people were willing to help out. They just stopped by the Embassy to pick up the visas, its 7:30 am on Sat there and they are heading to the airport.

They will land in JFK at 2pm, leave at 7pm, and land in Denver at 10pm.

YEA!

Cyndi and Stephen,

Are they home already (Saturday night)? Or are they home on our Sunday night? As you can tell, I'm confused!

I can't believe it all turned around so quick and they are "outta there"! Please let us know when everyone is home safe!

Three families over there at once has been so great. I am hooked on the blogs and tune in, like a soap opera, everynight!

We really enjoyed keeping up with your ups-and-downs Thank you for taking the time to share with us "newbies" at home, who have yet to make the trip!

Hugs,
Twyla, John, Duncan, and Mari

I have been following your blog and so happy that you are now the parents of 2 beautiful girls. We adopted our son from Kazakhstan in Aug. 05, and have a bio daughter who just turned 13. Felt so bad when the fingerprint thing happened,International adoption seems to always have some kind of issue. Fortunately we didn't have too many problems with Cole's adoption. I am just glad to hear that they should all be home safely now.
Best wishes, Toni from California

Wonderful news. So sorry to hear of this predicament and the pain and inconvenience it has caused. But your girls look like the greatest reward for these toils -- what sweeties :-) I wish you all the best with the rest of your journey.
