Ukraine might put a moratorium on all international adoptions. Apparently it might not have just been a grumpy orphanage director who decided not to allow the kids to come to Birmingham this summer. I do not have all the details on this. I saw this posted on the well trained mind forum.
The Rada is meeting on June 2nd (7 hours ahead of EST) to consider a bill that would put a halt on all international adoptions. There is even talk that parents who are IN Ukraine right now could be sent home without their children. Please join me in praying that this bill would NOT pass AND that the Lord would make the way clear for us to adopt Katya this summer. Thanks!!!

I can't even describe how this makes me feel. Randy and Valerie (the people who the kids in Birmingham) are supposed to be getting the last of their kids this summer. I am not sure what time they were going. I hope that they already have their children. Please pray for these kids. Most of the children who are adopted in Ukraine are not adopted by local people. If they put a stop to, or heavy restrictions on, foreign adoptions, there are going to be sooooo many beautiful children who suffer.
