Dossier Approval and Benefit Concert!!

Our dossier was approved and submitted on June 10th. It was actually accepted on the first time! Which is unusual from what we hear? There were no mistakes with our paperwork! Thank goodness because I don't want to do anymore paperwork! ha. Anyways, they say we should know our travel date anywhere between 4-6 weeks from the time it was submitted. So we are looking at the end of July now for traveling the first time. (I know, every time I post the date keeps getting pushed back and back) We would like to think we are on the home stretch now with the waiting game. We are so anxious to get to Ukraine just to see V! Right now V is at a summer camp in Odessa Ukraine. He says he is not having any fun and is counting down the days until we come to him. He misses his family so much. We had bought him a cell phone before he left for camp so we could keep up the communication, but unfortunately it was already stolen. In the middle of the night under his pillow, might I add! UGH! This is cell phone #3 that has gotten stolen. I can't wait for the day where we don't have to worry about communication issues and I can lay my own eyes on my child every day! I'm sure it is a lot harder for him to wait than us, but we are hoping and praying for a speedy process from here on. We are still planning on traveling 3 times to Ukraine. Jerry will go all 3 times and I will only go 2 times. We will be gone approx. a week every trip. We are doing our last adoption fundraiser this next weekend. July 7th. Our friend, John Waller will be singing a concert in our backyard! Please help us spread the word! We will be selling the rest of our t-shirts and hoping to raise the additional money that is needed for us to complete this adoption. Follow John Waller music on Facebook! He is awesome! :) I will include some pictures of V and the picture of our fundraiser event. I feel like our child has grown and changed so much in the past (ALMOST 6 MONTHS!!) :((( We miss him!!!
