Long days and longer nights......

Our court date has been moved from the 29th to the 12th. We are in country. The MSP did not have our final paper in time for us to make it in region for court. Normally this might be a day or two adjustment....but our judge is now on a two week vacation. What should have been Gotcha Day is now our new court date. I can not express to you how badly this rocked me! Leaving Baby Gage is so hard. Knowing Russia can invade at any moment is frightening. Losing these boys....would be devastating! We left the US for our second trip still short $1,500.
After court we will both fly home. Marty has to return to work and I need to relieve my sister from babysitting and other family members. Adoption is stressful on everyone! Your friends, family and children. After the ten waiting days, Marty will remain at home working and caring for our children and I will return to Ukraine with a family friend to assist me in getting the boys visas, passports, medicals, and through three grueling flights. Two trips has now turned to three. The need for funds seems never ending, and our boys are stuck two additional weeks in an orphanage. The evenings are ruthless. We are exhausted.
The good news? Gods renewed Hope greets us every morning! A friend has generously offered three $50 Visa gift cards as a fundraiser! We are still short the origonally $1500 and an additional round trip ticket! Marty is hopeful through Decals for Dunham and extra work he can cover the plane ticket. This leaves us still short a minimum of $1,500 we still NEED our FSP to reach $14,000. Once it does we will draw the winners for all three Visa Gift Cards!
