Well I started this morning at 5:00 am taking the Kniphfer's to the airport. They were excited, nervous, and apprehensive all rolled in to one family package. It seems like a year ago the Gully's felt the same emotions. But hey, you just don't know what to expect when you are on a God adventure. Here is the how today has gone.
5:00 am Wake up call
5:30 am Take the Kniphfer's to the airport
6:00 am Jesse and Ron have breakfast at IHOP
6:15 am Text message from the girls stating they want to come home
6:27 am Phone call girls, they are tired, beaten down and homesick
6:45 am Call to travel agent to book flights
8:17 am On the home phone with travel agent and Lynn on the cell phone
9:30 am Flights confirmed for Thursday July 5th
10:07am text from Lynn to call her
10:09 am On the phone, " we are going to a woman's house to get a piece of paper"
10:27 am Ok so the woman did not have the "the piece of paper it is at some office"
10:32 am text message from Lynn "Dennis just called the office, they have it"
10:44 am The girls are not coming home, "the piece of paper" is a really good thing
You just can't explain it till you live it! The latest news for the Gully's in the pursuit of bringing Christina into our family is this: We now believe Christina's biological mother never registered her (in English, applied for a birth certificate)and the orphanage did. In a weird twist this effectively makes the orphanages her mother and we are now told an extra court appearance is not required. This means I may be headed back to Ukraine soon for the adoption hearing.
Wow this is better than the Goliath roller coaster at Six Flags.
Sincerely,
Cautiously Optimistic (again) Ron.
