We are in Kiev

We got the passports started today and now we are in Kiev.  We are praying that the passports will be done by Friday.  Our facilitator is ready to go home as much as we are. 

The kids are doing well.  Peyton is soooo good and quiet.  She is also very good with Caleb.  I think since she was at a small boarding school before she came to the orphange in April that she has seen the "outside" more than Caleb.  He is, as you can imagine, a little overstimlulated.  He has tried out every light switch and button in the apartment several times.  Although I have to say that since being with us for just 24 hours he has calmed down some.  It is so fun to watch him get so excited about things we just take for granted and look past.  He is really getting good at repeating words we ask him to.  They both slept all night last night at the hotel.  We will see how tonight goes as we will all be sleeping in one large bed.

Thanks to all that are following us and encouraging us.  Please pray that this last little bit will go by quickly and we can get home soon to our other children as well.
