I FOUND THEM!!!!!!!!!!! For some reason they were in the bottom of the linen closet in our master bathroom tucked behind some towels. (Can you tell I've ripped up my whole house looking for these things?) WHAT ON EARTH WERE THEY DOING THERE?????
Life is lots less hairy around here now, and my children no longer have to wonder what that grey cloud over Mama's head is all about.
Thanks for listening to my wild-woman-in-a-panic ravings!

Shelly,
I just got around to checking your blog since we got our little Sydney home with us. Everything is going well but the adjustment period as you know is hard for us all! I came last night to check up on you and saw another post about Nadia. I really have it in my heart for her and think I could make it happen financially but there are so many things against us. One I am told you can't pick the child so there is no guarantee that I would be able to get her. I know you could find out her name for me as you had said before. I just really think that I am drawn to this child. Do you have any insight for me. Is it a lost cause on my part? You can email me privately raneerich@yahoo.com
Shelly!
Wow am I glad I checked in again today! Not only am I thrilled to hear you found them (and yes, I can believe you ripped the entire house apart!) but I was also thrilled to read the post from the person who is interested in trying to adopt Nadia. I hope and pray that happens and she comes home to live with her forever family soon! xo Lisa S.
Thank you to MOM for praying for us we need all the prayers we can get. I am praying very hard about this matter but one thing sticks out in my mind. The problems going on in Ukraine at this moment and the fact that they might have some effects on adoptions!

Ranee, I'm going to ask around and see what the options might be regarding finding Nadia's info, but I certainly can't promise a thing. If even one of her relatives has visited her within the last year, no one can adopt her. Lots of things factor in, but I wouldn't panic just yet about the political scene in Ukraine right now. Things have been business as usual at the National Adoption Center with no signs at all of anything slowing down. Lots of people have just recently received appointments, so until you hear a definite otherwise, I wouldn't stop the presses because of that. If you have a child meant to be yours in Ukraine, don't let anything stop you from banging on their doors to get them.
I thought if I told my dh he would say don't even think about it. I actually said I want to get a sister for Sydney. He said is this the same girl in the picture, the dirty girl? He remembered that! well later I said it stinks because there would be no guarantee you could get her because they don't let you request and I don't understand why if a child is wanted it is not possible to get them. He actually agreed and said that stinks. I was shocked and I think he would be all for this. Then I started thinking if she is meant to be with us then wouldn't that happen for us when we got there? If not maybe she brought me to someone else. I can't make the decisions that god knows the answers to. Please if you find out anything let me know. by the time I had the money to do this I don't know if anything political would be a factor anymore!
Ranee, I'll let you know as soon as I hear something...
