Update from Region - Lugansk

To all,

Getting to the internet is a challenge in it's self. We have been to the Orphanage on Monday and visited our son (yipppppeee). His given name at birth is Vlademiere (yet to settle on permanent name) and we know his first name will be Jackson (in honor of one of the most awesome Dad's). Jackson is blond as blond comes with baby blue beautiful eyes just like his Dad. Jackson is really the spitting image of Andy - I guess I am not surprised. We will be in the region for at least several more days doing some requisite paperwork. Note that the Orphanage is in the region called Lugansk in the most Eastern part of Ukraine we are just over the border from Russia. This community is a very small farming town and there are no Internet Cafes (I am on the next door neighbor's computer and will not be checking work e-mail till we get back to Kiev).

I am not clear on the timing and anticipate that we will be back in the states late next week.

We are all very well and feel blessed that the process has been so effortless. Jackson looks forward to being acquainted with all really soon.

Okay for now. Will try to get back on the internet once in Kiev later this week.

Much love,
A squared + Jackson
