Early October news - or lack thereof!

Alex on his Honda 50!
Here is Jason riding on "Dixie"... isn't she cute!
Well - we are at the final "paperwork" stage. We have turned in the last papers that we are going to do! The SDA (National Adoption Center) gave all families until the 15th of October to get everything turned in. It is hard to fathom that a small stack of papers can cost you an arm and a leg! Each form has to be notarized AND apostilled (which goes to the Secretary of State) and then is sent to Ukraine to be translated. It is in no-way an easy or stressless process! All it takes is for one date or signature to be missing, and you have to start over - YET AGAIN! We are very tired of the waiting game and this is pretty much it. We have been waiting over two years just for an appointment date - with a very dim light at the end of the tunnel!
We are fortunate enough to have more than enough distractions while waiting for our coveted date! School is back in and the boys are keeping busy with school work.... Soccer is full force three days a week... and Scouts have started up again! In the "free" moments - Jason rides Dixie and Alex rides his "50"! The next post will hopefully contain more info about our date!
