Hopeful Court Date

Information again from Michelle. Ted & Amy are still trying to get the internet problem fixed...

The last signature needed was obtained and Galina was able to get back to Kiev. The court date will be next Tuesday, December 20th...and 10 days later they will obtain the papers...which will be December 30th. After that, they go to Kiev and hope to be home on the 3rd or 4th of January.

Today was a day for staying home, at Lela's. Victor brought Natasha to them there...and she was also allowed to spend the night, about which she was really excited. She will go back to the orphanage early tomorrow for school. Amy, Ted and Ariana will go to the orphanage tomorrow afternoon, in hopes of being able to take Natasha home again for another over-night...but we'll see.

Natasha keeps asking about her grandparents. A picture of Grandpa & Grandma Lennard has been sent so she will see her one set of grandparents.

I am hoping to stay overnight tomorrow at Lela's w/Ted, Amy, Ariana & hopefully Natasha!

Maybe the internet will be in service by then...let's hope!

Love,
Michelle (for Amy, Ted, Ariana & Natasha)
