Documents in Russia... Patiently waiting...

A few minor delays, a few redone documents, few last minute changes, standard adoption procedure really but all our documents are now finally in Russia, nothing more for us to do other than wait and pray!

Our agency has told us to expect a 1 to 3 month wait for a referral and once we get details of a child we should travel out roughly a week later.  Three trips this time and it could be up to 3 months between travelling out and meeting him for the first time and the third trip when Leah, Amanda and I travel out to bring him home!  Very surreal to think that we will meet our son for the first time soon...

Meanwhile, since our last post Leah has started school and loves it so far, it really helps that she knows so many of her class already from our Sunday School and last years playgroup.

I'll finish this edition with a few pics of Leah in uniform.

Next post will be confirming when we are travelling out for the first time, hopefully we will be posting soon!!

Philip, Amanda and Leah

Everything seems to be moving along nicely! Is it a contradiction to pray for patience AND speed?

Lots of love..... Gemma J xxx

I wish you all the best. I was in Kaz adopting my son, Griffin when you were there with Leah. Griffin turned 4 last month. It's all surreal, isn't it? I wish you the best. Susan from Austin
