Okay, we decided to have a little fun during this waiting time... We have been waiting to hear when our SDA appointment in Ukraine will be since we submitted our dossier on August 7th to the SDA. We thought we would hear by now and are starting to get a wee bit impatient. However, it helped that we were very busy with our girls here in August and didn't have much time to dwell on it. It also helps that Kevin and Pam submitted on the same day and haven't heard yet either. I think if it weren't for you guys we would be concerned!! Our facilitator happens to be in the US vacationing and we haven't heard from her for at least a week - hoping for good news soon.
So, in the meantime, leave us a comment with your best guess for when Ukraine will issue us an appointment at the SDA to recieve our referral for the girls. This is the next big step in the process and after we are given that referral, we will go on to the girls' region, accept the refferal and wait for a court date. After court there is a mandatory 10 day wait, during which one or both of us may come home - not sure of the costs of that yet. After that, we have to get a few paperwork things done like medicals and visas I think and then we come home!!!
So, the SDA could be anytime in the next few months - we are told to expect it to be anytime between now (well not for at least a few weeks) and Christmas. We pray that is the case!

O.k. my guess is going to be September 15! The way things are going, I think they are going to give us short notice. I have been taking my time getting things together. It will be what we least expect:) God likes to keep me on my toes. Good way to pass the time! I need to be more like you and not be so uptight.
Hmmmm, I'll go with Sept. 19! :-)
Okay - I'll add the dates our family has chosen:
Jason (my sister's hubby)
October 8
Me October 14
Allee (our daughter) October 22
Zach October 23
Jeri (my mom) October 28
Ashley (my sis) Nov 3
