Saturday Night in Khmelnytskyi

We had a couple of nice visits with the boys today. It's been great being able to spend time outside with them. We've settled into a comfortable routine, and the days go by pretty quickly. By the time we walk back from the orphanage in the morning, usually making a couple of stops along the way, have lunch at "our" restaurant across the street, and return to the hotel, it's not long until it's time to head off again for the afternoon visit.

We are so appreciative for all of the comments sent to us in response to the postings and (especially) photos. Keeping this blog has been a real comfort to us and helped us to continue feeling connected to those back home. We miss our family and friends so much, and can't wait to bring the boys home and see everyone soon.

Thanks for keeping us going!

Love,
Ellen & Chris

The blog has been great for us also. It is the first thing we check in the morning and the last thing we check at night.

Thanks for doing it!

Chris and Ellen,
Hello from the Ridgeview neighborhood. We just heard today at church about your journey. We are so happy for your new found family. The boys sound so wonderful! We wish you all the best of the next few weeks and I know Kelly can't wait to meet the boys. We will keep you all in our thoughts and prayers and keep an eye out on your home in the US. Take care, The Guberman's, Kim,Jason,Kelly and Ashley

Chris and Ellen,

We just got the URL today at church. My mother doesn't have Internet access, so we'll have to tell her about it or show her if she's at our house. Good Luck, the boys look wonderful.
