WE ARE SUBMITTED!
On May 13th, our dossier was accepted by the SDA in Ukraine!
What does this mean?
It means our dossier was handed in at the SDA and they will now take approximately 20 Ukrainian working days ~ although, it can be longer ~ to process our dossier and designate an appointment date for us.
What’s an appointment date?
The appointment date is the day the SDA has set aside for us to meet with them and review files of children who meet our request.

Great News! We too got word of our submission date, June 2nd! This is exciting.
How exciting! We were submitted today too! BTW, I love the chart.
Congratulations! We are scheduled to be submitted next week. Maybe they will process them faster this month :)
Slava Bogu! So good to know things are still moving at the SDA! You continue to be in our prayers!
Congrats! Maybe we'll see each other in Kiev!

Congratulations!!! That's wonderful news. Some people getting dates right now are getting early August travel dates. This will probably put you in late August or early September. I hear is very nice there that time of year. Then again, any time of the year is good when you are getting your kids :).
Hooray!!! That is amazing news and we are thrilled for you. FINALLY!!! :)
Hi Lisa,
I'm truly overjoyed for you. Keep us up to date
Love and best wishes

You know I was just thinking about you and your family today. Do you remember last year at the International Food Festival you pulled Todd and I aside and said, "Guess what? We're pregnant!" I remember both of you beaming from ear to ear. The Food Festival is Thursday and I was thinking..."Wouldn't it be cool if Jim and Lisa have astounding news this year as well?" You do!!! A couple days early but you never can tell with these pregnancies, huh? I am so thrilled. I figure the sooner this goes through the more chances I have of seeing your new little girl. You wanna see a grown man turn to mush? Put a little girl in his arms. I'm so happy for you all.
I will see you tomorrow and love you, Tammy
