Odessa...here we come!
Today we went to the NAC to sign our names and show them out passport numbers.
Ariana was then given a big stack of papers and they said to her, "Here is your sister." Ariana and we broke out in big grins!
We are leaving at 11 PM to go to Odessa. We will arrive at 9 AM and go to the administrators. We won't have to make any copies of our documents, as Galina has done this in Kiev. We aren't sure whether or not we will see Natasha tomorrow but we hope we will. I am a little nervous and hope she will like us. Michelle just phoned and said Natasha was SO excited and kept asking Michelle all about us and especially about her "sisters and brothers." She wanted to know what the girls liked to do and what her room would look like and many other things. I was so happy to hear this. Please pray that we will have a good meeting and that we all will feel comfortable w/each other.
I haven't added many details about Natasha...her age and grade. However she is 14 years of age and is in the 8th grade here.
We are excited for tomorrow and hope to get some rest on the train...or maybe not...
Praises and grateful thanks to all you prayer warriors, as my ear has been getting better and feels almost as good as new! YES...thank you God!
We keep you posted as events occur.
Love,
Ted, Amy & Ariana
We're off to see our daughter and sister!

Amy Ted and Ariana,
You must be very excited as you are leaving exclamation points after every blog title! We are excited for you as well and are praying for you every night. Grandma just purchased Lauren tonight at the elf auction and she will be ready to entertain Natasha when she gets here. We love you and are thinking of you as you retrace the steps of those who have gone before you. I hope you had a lovely train ride. Did you get some tea from a lovely cup when you awoke? I hope you get to meet Natasha tomorrow.
Love, Susie
