I guess we have encountered one of our first delays. Hopefully there won't be too many more. I spoke with our agency today and things are moving slowly right now. We were told not to expect a referral this month, maybe in June. However, several of the regions will be closing for two months this summer, they usually only close for one. So things could take most of the summer which is what we were told in the beginning. I am hoping otherwise but I it is how most Russian adoptions go.
Keep us in your prayers!

Update
Just a quick update. Our dossier made it to our adoption agency today, hopefully there is nothing that will have to be redone. I am counting on at least one thing needing revisions. It seems to be the way things go for us. We are half way through what I am hoping is a four week wait but one never knows. Tomorrow we have to be in Davie (2 hours away) at 8:00 a.m. for fingerprinting for immigration paperwork, it will be an early morning.
Don and I spent the weekend and the last two evenings working on the "nursery", sounds so strange to say. We put up cream beadboard with a shelf around the top and painted the top half of the walls a medium periwinkle/denim blue. It looks wonderful. Due to all of the company coming we are putting it back together as a guest room but it will be easy to change in to a nursery when it is time.
Michelle is graduating from USF on Saturday morning. Yippee!!! It is very exciting for her. She will be starting nursing school in the fall in the Tampa area. I hope it all works out for her. Her and I put together a luncheon after the graduation for family. One of her good friends is getting married that day and she wants to go to the reception in the evening so we didn't do anything big. When Michelle graduates from nursing school we'll have to do it up right. Don's sister, Carol, from Rhode Island is coming for the weekend and Don's parents will also be there. And then they will visit us for a couple of days afterward.
