Please pray

Please pray for our paperwork. All paperwork is ready, it just needs to be sign by one last person, and we will have court. But by today's law, this person has 10 business days to sign :((( And our facilitator said that sometimes they are not in hurry to sign. Please pray for Gods hand, so this person will sign this week or early next week.

Thank you

God Bless you

Day 9-with kids

We had a great morning with boys. By 5 pm we had to take them back to "Fathers House", and it take almost 2 hours to get there, so we had breakfast at home, Sergey went with boys out and got some food.

They were hungry  :)
 We made tea and stayed home for breakfast




Kids loved to stay on the balcony, there were some workers outside, kids watched them

Played with some toys

We went to eat lunch, o my, they have so much energy in the morning !



 Puzata Xata , kids room.




Kids had icecream


We took subway

then marshrootka



Daniel and Stasik foster parents are super nice people Nazar and Natasha. They are young but they are doing such a great job of taking care of the kids. All total they have 6 kids, that live with them in same apartment, and it's like family type. They make their own food, they have their own budget, and rules. I will take more pictures, and will post more about boys home(for now).

We did had a nice chat with foster parents, and had tea. We left their place and headed home, because it was late.

We had a wonderful day!!!

Day 8-Boys are with us

In the morning we wanted to go to local market to buy few things for boys, and get their airplane bag(gotcha backpack) ready in case I will have to go back US earlier and Sergey will stay during waiting period. But we remembered that markets on Sunday and Monday are closed, and we decided to go there on Tuesday or Wednesday.

Around noon we called an orphanage to see if we can come and see boys. We asked if we can take boys to Kiev with us to spend a day together and a night, and bring them back to the orphanage next day. They did let us!!!
At 3 pm we got to the orphanage and boys were already ready with their backpacks packed. Sergey had to write a note, and put the time when we will bring them back, and sign, and this was it, we were off with our handsome little guys.

Daniel A and Stanislav N are great little boys, and we feel so blessed to hold them, kiss them, and have opportunity to become their parents. I will write different post about their personalities and other info.
Here is our day in pictures! I hope you will enjoy it  we really did!!!

Our princess eating borsh for breakfast.
 We had to take 3 different public transportation to get to boys.  Subway for 30 minutes, we dont have pictures from subway. Then a big bus for 10 minutes,
  and then a little bus for 40 minutes.

 This sigh says: Stops request loud and ahead of time and the red one says: There is no stops here and there :) This made me smile
 And then a 20 minutes walk  to get to the orphanage.


Back to Kiev we took a taxi, because we didn't know how boys will act,and if they will be a good boys :)  And actually we are so proud of them, they were great behaved boys all the time! We did enjoyed them a lot!
 We ate at Puzata Xata, and I think this is the cheapest place to eat. We try to eat at home, but at lease once a day we go for hot food to Puzata Xata. We don't have a frying pan, or any other things to cook with at our apartment.




 These two are so cute together. Daniel A love his little sister, he is huge help, and he is always watching after here.
 There were a lot of things going on Kreschatik Street, and it was closed for weekend, and 1530 years of Kiev City. 





 My little cuties :)))


 Cotton Candy
 Stasik
 Daniel A, ElliAna and Stasik and they called me mommy :))) I am so blessed
 Playing with this little thing, that you can throw high in the sky with rubber band. It was fun, everyone was waiting for their turn.


Boys wasnt' sure if a guys is alive! It was funny, Stasik made everyone laugh when he came running back, yelling," Mommy, mommy I saw his red eyes, and they moved, he is alive " :))))
 Helping daddy to get stroller up the stairs:) They love to help

Big brother reading to his sister :) He offered to read to her

Before bed, skyping with boys and gram-ma at home
 That night they had this huge live concert outside, it was on  stage that was build earlier that week
 It was thousands people everywhere
 This is the stage




We are so thankful for this opportunity and we did enjoyed our boys!  We got to know boys better, and we are happy to have this time. God is great God!
