Many of you are aware that my daughter and her husband are adopting 2 beautiful children from Russia. ...They went over and saw them Dec. 28th....They are bio..brother/sister who were abandoned by their Mother. No Father involved...and the State took them last June... ALL papers were signed, ect......but, now, Russia is in a turmoil.........Thank goodness, she is with the Largest American Russian Adoption Agency. Too much to explain..but, we are lucky that they got to travel on their first trip....The owner of their agency is in Russia now..They have 11 couples..like Adriane, who have been to Russia, saw their children, ect... The owner is there demanding that these 11 couples get their courtdate, SOON. ..I feel sorry for all the many other American couples who are waiting for their first trip to see their children. Money already paid up front... There are 500,000 Russian children in orphanages..waiting for someone to come and get them.. Thank goodness the doctor in Adriane's orphanage..e-mails her..saying they are well, gaining weight, ect.......It's been 6 weeks since Adriane and her hubby played with them I saw the video..They are sooo cute and smart. Andrey is age 3 and Kate age 17 months.....Please pray that Russia gets their act together and let these children come home to us and the MANY other children, who have had a referral to American couples. This all happened after Adriane saw her children. Before, last year, the American couples were going back for their children ..2 weeks later. It was only after her visit that Russia decided to slow things down. about America adopting. ...but, I know, that they will have a courtdate soon... but, your prayers may bring them REALLY soon.. I was not to post a picture of them..but I did to Mary and Ann (they know how cute they are.. Bonnie
