Pray for paperwork

It seems like as Tonya and Joe move through this process the focus of our prayers change almost daily: safe travel, get a referral, healthy children, good visit with the director, edible food, etc...... so today's focus is getting the paperwork signed so that they can make their court date. Wednesday the prayer request will change again to safe travel for Mom and Joe as they trade places and that the 10 day waiting period passes without incident. Thanks for all the prayers, please keep them up, they are working!
Here is today's update from the Ukraine:

"Just back from visiting with Oksana. We practiced English and Ukrainian today. Yeva and Lasia were there as well.

Visited with the boys this morning. They like to play in the sandbox. We held up some of the clothes to try and get a size estimate. Dima - the 4-5 pants look to be right for him as well as the 4T shirt. He is probably right in the middle of the two. Vitali - the 3T pants were way too long but the 2T looked like he was about to be too big for them. The 3T shirt was a little big but the 2T was definitely too small. So, we are pretty much between sizes. Will probably not be able to tell for sure until we are able to actually get the clothes on them.

Ramon says we are on for court tomorrow at one and he is 90% sure the paperwork will be done. When we talked to him this afternoon he was waiting for them to call and tell him they had been signed.

As an aside it seems that the people who do the preparing of the documents and the people who do the signing are not the same, and the people who do the signing are never around. We needed the Inspector to sign so we could visit the children - not around. We needed the Notary to sign so we could submit documents to Inspector - not around. We need the SDA to sign - not around.Hopefully they will get signed so we do not have to change our tickets or figure out how to get mom.

Hope your day is good.

Tonz and Yo"
