Yesterday we went to a notary public to notarize documents needed in the submission process. Olga also went to some government offices to file or retrieve documents. In the afternoon we went again to the orphanage to play with the boys. Once again, we had a very positive and fun experience. The older boy, Alexander, seems quieter than his younger brother and is caring and polite. We brought them some candy but he asked if today we could also bring candy for his group in the orphanage. We have also seen how he really cares for his little brother. Oleg is full of energy and very playful. We learned that we are not supposed to post pictures of the boys until the court custody hearing is concluded so we look forward to the time that we can show the pictures.
We have not really seen much of Kherson yet, besides the various offices we've been in, the train station and, of course, the orphanage. There is a large supermarket and department store near our house and a few reasonably priced restaurants. Living costs in Kherson appear much more reasonable than Kiev which is helpful as we will likely be here quite a few more days. We look forward to seeing a bit more this weekend.

Hi,
ReplyDeleteSo glad to hear you made it safely to Kherson. We drove to Kherson which was about a 7 hour drive. The train, I'm sure was an experience? Have you seen the black and white dog next to your apt? Tell the Caregivers that Ella is doing good and said hi! Have fun!!!
