2 Years in the US with US







OK, so the last post was not exactly 2 years HOME per se but it was 2 years since he became a member of our family and that, to me, is home. It is not the wood and brick that where we lay our heads. We came back to the US two years ago on Derby Day and we haven't looked back since.
The next time that I post to this blog I hope to have a link to some videos of ours on YouTube as well as some pictures that we took of our recent visit with Gayla. Gayla was the lady that met us at the airport in Kyiv and she helped us through our appointment as well as getting our visas to go home. We stayed at her apartment while we were in Kyiv. We didn't get to visit long because there were a number of folks that wanted to see her but listening to her voice brought back so many memories for me. We also got to see the other couple that was in Ukraine the same time we were. They now have adopted 3 children from Ukraine and went back to get another girl but unfortunately if fell through. There were numerous kids from Ukraine there. Some you could pick out. Others were more difficult to tell. I think Coy looks great and is very smart and we are lucky to have him. He is a bundle of joy (mostly) and has been a very welcomed and wonderful addition to our family.
Anyone that reads this blog, please be in prayer for friends of mine/ours that are in the waiting process for adoptions. I know it can be painfully slow sometimes and that these folks need to be encouraged from time to time that God's timing is perfect. That is one of the main statements that I remember from the ladies that helped us in the US. I guess that they had been through the waiting so many times that they had seen first hand over and over how God had worked everything out perfectly. And He will again. In His timing.
