Sept. 9th

Hello my friends and family!
We successfully sent off our Dossiers with all the paperwork necessary for submission to the SDA. Sergiy's appointed time was today (Wednesday) to submit them. The SDA accepted all the documents but the Medical Certificate. They need some changes made to it, including one type of physician. As I have to head into Boise again, I am trying to not get frustrated over all these little details. The Medical Certificate is one Ukraine sent to us to use! It's not even an American form! So that it was rejected and needing wording changed is frustrating, to say the least. Things change fast in Ukraine and I believe they just can't keep up with them - especially when an adoption takes so many months.

The great news is they liked everything else and kept the other documents. My understanding is they are processing the Request to Adopt a Special Child which names Vala and Ola specifically. This is our ticket to seeing them specifically once we enter the country. If this is denied, we will not get the opportunity to adopt them. We are praying the SDA approves us to meet both girls. To be allowed only one of them would be absolutely heartbreaking! God knows and understands.

Please pray for endurance for John and I and our family. Please pray for the necessary funds to be received in just the right time. Pray for those who will be helping run our business stateside and taking care of our daughters while we are away - and their families too.

Until the next update! Happy trails! God bless you and yours.
Sincerely,
Jenn
