We finally have received our appointment date of 12/15/06! We are so excited, just praying our last approval comes through. We even have our plane tickets booked- we will be flying out of Atlanta on 12/13 and arrive in Ukraine 10:30 am on the 14th. We will have an orientation dinner on the 14th to meet everyone we will be working with from our adoption agency, and then will show up to the adoption center on the 15th!

Dear Chris and Kim,
Psalm 139 reveals how we are fearfully and wonderfully made. God is preparing for you a child or children already made in His image in which He is entrusting the two of you to raise. He is orchestrating all the details and preparations involved in the days ahead. We will pray for God's direction as you move forward in this exciting time. Love, Greg and Gail Crow

Chris and Kim,
I know this journey has been a long one for you guys, but God has finally answered your prayers. Just think your little kids are waiting on you right now to come and get them. What an amazing thought! We are praying for you as you leave on this exciting adventure to find your family. We pray that the road is smooth and that God will be with you all along the way. We can't wait to meet your new addition or additions :-)!

Love,
Mark and Missy

What an exciting adventure you are about to take this morning--an adventure that will change the rest of your lives for the better. Jaime and I figured you were not able to sleep during the night in anticipation of all that is about to take place. I was there when you got married and now get to see the next major change of your lives. Good luck and we can't wait to see your new enlarged family. Rest assured we and all your family and friends will be praying for you during this time.

I woke up thinking about how today is the day you look at the photos and information of the children you will choose from. What a very tough decision. I can only imagine the mix of emotions you will feel during this process. Know that David and I are praying without ceasing. We're so overwhelmed with joy that God is finally giving you this gift! It's been a long wait but I really believe that His timing is perfect. We're praying...
Love, David and Laura
