Today is Monday and are long awaited appointment took place at the State Dept. of Adoption. Everything went so well. We were able to learn more about the girls and their family. They do have an older brother that lives in the same city but he is not interested in raising them or cannot. One has no father to be found and the other the father and mother were divorced and his rights were terminated for not providing for her.
They are both beautiful girls.
We go back to the same office tomorrow afternoon to get the paperwork we need to travel to the orphanage. We board a train tomorrow night for an all night train ride to the orphanage. Both girls were born in that city so we will not have to do any more traveling to get their new birth certificates. We will arrive on Wed. morning and go to visit the girls. They will be told at that time we are arriving. Although I think they already know.
It is a cold and cloudy day today, hope it warms up. Glad to have brought winter coats, hats, and gloves. You do alot of walking here. I know how not in shape I really am. Walked many stairs yesterday to go to church and feeling the muscles today. More exercise is a good thing!!!
