OUR APPOINTMENT

AUGUST 10, 2004

Hello everyone!! Thank you all for your kind wishes and prayers. I can't writemuch because the internet cafe is closing in a few minutes.
Unfortunately we did not find a child we wanted to visit on our appointmenttoday. Our appointment was at 3:30 so we basically got the leftovers from the17 other families that had appointments today. Our translator warned us of this so we were prepared. They did show us 2 pictures of girls who were both 2 years old. One girl had mild cerebral palsy and digestive problems and the other had something wrong with her brain when they did a brain scan. We decided this was more than we could handle so we are going to go back for a second appointment. Everyone at the Adoption Center were so nice and our translator Sveta is awesome! We are in very high spirits and feel very confident in the decision we made and we know we will find our child/children soon! Our next appointment will be either Thurs, Fri or Mon. Please continue to keep us in your prayers and hope everyone is doing good. In the meantime we are having to get used to the Ukrainian way of life. It's not so bad. We would like an apartment with a fridge and a washer though :) Sveta said that if the next appointment doesn't work out she will move us to an apartment that has at least a fridge :) Ok, well that's all for now!
Till next time,Chris and Julie Nolte
