August Update


We have been trying to keep cool here in Texas.
Getting Shawn ready for Kindergarten and waiting, more waiting for news.
The good news is there is no especially bad news. The bad news is that we will encounter another delay due to a country wide slow down of processing paperwork in Kazakhstan. More details at a later date-suffice to write that we nor our agency can do any thing about it so we will wait some more. We will continue to prepare for our trip as if we were leaving in a few weeks and wait for the call.
Shawn was sitting on his Grandpa's lap last week and was asked to move to the other leg. Shawn said no, because that leg was for his brother Dias.....With love like that we can wait as long as it takes.
The generosity and support we have received from friends and family is also keeping us strong.
We are anxiously awaiting news from the Chapman family who are in Kazakhstan right now picking up their beautiful Emma, to see if they were able to see Dias. And dare we hope, maybe even get new photographs?
Temple sent this never before seen photo of Shawn to us from WPA. Found in old records from Shawn's paperwork. Can't you see the love the care taker has for him? Would be so cool to find her when we go back.
More later.....
