Lisa and I just left our appointment at the SDA with Victor. We had to meet him at 4:00 but found out that our apponitment was really at 5:00. So we waited. We went into the small room and listened to 3 women and Victor have conversation in Russian. They handed Victor a hand written form with a very small photo stapeled to it. This was the one file they were prepared to propose to us. It was of a girl, born April 2, 2007, (18 months) in the Town of Svaliana (Lviv Region). All reports show her to be healthy.
Victor is planning to call us tomorrow afternoon to discuss travel arrangements. This is a overnight train ride to Lviv (12 hours) and then another 2 hours to Svaliana. We exspect to be there for 1 day only just to meet the child and confirm our intention to adopt her. Then we return to Kiev (probably the next day) for medical from an intenational doctor.
Lisa and I are thrilled but are waiting to meet with the child and confirmation on medicals. We will try to keep you posted (but it is a very small town and we may not have internet).

Good luck to you both! Mark and I are excited for you and hope everything works out. What an adventure! We admire your courage to find your child. There is a child that doesn't even know the best day of her life is just around the corner, and coming in on the next train. Travel safe and we will look forward to some good news!
Wow, how are you both going to keep from getting overly excited while trying to keep your expectations in check just in case...what an emotional rollercoaster...hang in there and good luck!!!
