We are home...

It's been almost a week since we came home from Ukraine. We are finally over time changes, everyone is in routine, and life seems much easier :) We found out many new things about each other during this trip. All our kids do much better with routine and schedules.

 Danik had some independent study to do during trip, so he was busy.
Danik did miss school, and was happy to go back to school. I was thinking to let him stay home on Monday( we came home late Saturday), but Danik really wanted to go to school and I did let him.
The only thing Denny was talking about, missing the whole time we were in Ukraine, was MARIO :) For this Christmas we got Wii, and Mario is one of the games that came with it. We had long talks, almost everyday about Mario. lol

ElliAna, is doing much better home and looks like she is starting to remember that she has a daddy too :) At the moment we got to the plane to fly to Ukraine, and the whole time while in Ukraine and till the moment we got back from the plane last Saturday, she wanted to see, hear, touch, and deal only with mommy, me :) It was interesting times, hard times, but it's over, and we have only memories.

I am sad when I look at my kids, and I do thing about kids we left behind. Every time our kids are playing, or eating, I am thinking about my other kids. It's hard, but at least we have hope. We will return to bring our kids home.
We are looking forward to our second trip to Ukraine, and already planning. We have many little things needs to be done around the house to prepare more, and we will keep ourselves busy.

*We do have best facilitator, and him and his wife helped us a lot. He was not only doing his job, he was going  extra mile for us. We do appreciate all the help we were getting. This is our second adoption with him, and we are so happy God led us to him, and we have a great person to rely on.
