FBI updated :O))

Not one of Clyde's better moments..
Today we drove 30 miles to our Local Sheriff station to be finger printed once again.  Praying this will be the last and final time our fingers have to be printed.  Each time you  think it might get easier but my fingers just can not seem to relax.  So far just this adoption we have been ink printed three times and had bio~metric once for USCIS.  With each set of fingerprints means additional costs to our adoption.  The updates alone have added up quickly and we will still have to notarize and apostle each document.  With 60 or so documents it is adding up quickly at $20 a piece for notary and $20 for apostles.  SO a big hunk of our savings we have set back for our trip.  Once our dossier is submitted we will be working towards raising the funds we need to travel with.  And with two new little ones this means two of everything from Airlines, Child's Visas, Children Medicals, Immigration fees and the list goes on and on.  Every dollar so far has came from our savings.  Not one penny from donations have been used.  Funds raised will be used while in country and for travel to and from their country.  So I ask everyone to please donate either to our Paypal account or our Reeces Rainbow FSP. On our blog is a donation button where you can directly send funds to both Reeces Rainbow and our Paypal account.



UPDATE ON TODAY'S NEW FEES

$  60.00 for finger prints,
$130.00 to Accurate Biometrics
$  12.00 postage to ship the fingerprints. 
$202.00        :O(((  from savings 



This time around we will need to get two  sets of clearances each for our dossier.  So this means extra fees added on.
Once our clearances ~RAP SHEETS are return we then send them to be apostle. We will be waiting till our FBI clearances to be returned. Once received we can all update the remaining documents & have them reviewed.
Then they are shipped to our children's country where they are registered and we are given a date to travel.

Please pray for our children during this time they stay healthy and well.

One day closer to coming home

After arriving in Kiev we went right to bed.  Between moving quickly from one plane to another then a 30 minute ride to our hotel. With the time difference we had to rest once arriving.  Being up over 26 hours we were exhausted. Prior to leaving the US I had to visit my doctor.  Not any good news to share.  Only some complications had arrised.  Staying with Jake a week at the hospital and him checking out the day prior I had to have another check up myself.  Unfortunately my cancer has spread.  Problems now with blood pressure, thyroid disease and diabetes. Being placed on news meds prior to travel is not working out to well. It was awful arriving in Kiev sitting in a wheel chair.  Niko met us and drove us to get Greyson's birth records.  It was a 4 hour drive there n back   We waited 3 hours to have it printed. Greyson's birth Certificate So much left to do. Tomorrow we head to Mauripol.

Delays and worries

The Sea

We are now in our children's city close to the sea.  A 8 hour express train ride and another 5 hours by car.  Today the kids decided to swim between the many hours of chasing paperwork. Me I slept and soak in a little sun. Patrick and Christian
