We had a great day!

Hello,

We had a very busy day yesterday. We met with the inspector. It went well. we received our paper work. We went to the orphanage to talk to Dina (the social worker) she was nice to us. she said she would do whatever she could for us. She said she was glad we were adopting vitalik because she likes him. Then, we spent the afternoon with vitalik.

The students put on a talent show for the teachers and we were able to go. What a blessing this was. Vitalik and his friend ( denise, I think) did some special dance with acrobats and flips. I was quit impressed. The whole show was fun. vitalik sister showed up for the talent show. So we were able to talk with her. she gave the consent for Vitalik to be adopted. It wasn't easy for her, she wanted to do what he wanted. she was very nice.
We plan to keep in touch and see her whenever we can. she is coming to the orphanage today and we will all go have pizza together.

Thank you all for the prayers, God came through in a big way, we are so happy. Vitalik is a great young man, very personable and engaging. He is a lot of fun.

I will post pictures later, we are headed back to the orphanage.

Blessings to you,

Jeri
