Adoption Article

Several people here in Memphis saw this article in last Friday's paper. Some were concerned that it might affect our adoption.

Although it is a very interesting article, we are adopting from Ukraine and they, thus far, do not share Russia's concerns regarding adoption. Also, the article says that private adoptions are still going thru and what we are doing is essentially a private adoption.

Anyway, it is good reading, not just for those considering adoption, but also for anyone interested in the sad plight of those many orphans over there.

How unfortunate for those children. It makes me angry that they are expressing their political frustrations at the expense of innocent children.

On the flip side, it should make people want to fight harder for those children. I am looking forward to hearing the many updates as you begin your journey towards adoption. Good luck and remember you have MANY supporters!
