response from Natasha

Okay, well it looks as though it will be fall before we hear anything.

Here are some of the excerpts from the letter received:

"Due to the Tennessee situation when the mother sent her child back and other abuses, the adoption process' have become much more difficult and stricter for American families. We all understand that waiting is very difficult, but we cannot control the process of referrals. A lot of officials leave for vacation during the summer months and this is why we do not think we will get any new referrals. "

"Tambov is a small region and there are not always a lot of children available but it is the one that accepted and registered your documents. Tatiana, our coordinator, has a great connection there and she is doing her very best there."

I just wanted to thank everyone for their prayers and support.

THANKS!
