The ten day wait is over! We will have the official court decree in hand tomorrow and we will be able to begin the next phase of preparing to come home. We are planning to leave Kryvy Rih on Wednesday morning. We will need to go to Dnipropetrovsk to submit documentation and apply for Mariah's passport. From there, we are hoping to take "the fast train" back to Kyiv. If all goes well, we will be in Kyiv with enough time to go to the U.S. Embassy by Friday and fly home on Saturday. We will know as the week progresses whether or not we will all be able to travel home together. It will depend on the timing of the paperwork, primarily the passport. Thank you for all the support and encouragement during this exciting adventure. A big thank you to Leesha for keeping things up at home while we have been away. We also appreciate the people at IGI for picking up the slack while Jason has been gone. Mariah has a home and a family now. Thank you to all the people who helped make this possible. We are grateful.
Congratulations! Hope you make it home this weekend. We'll be starting our journey as you are arriving home.
