Грустный итог

Вот мы и прожили месяц в США. Мы немного видели: небольшой город, хороший комфортный дом, маленький парк, церковь. Школы. Да, мне понравились школы здесь, и теперь, осознавая вероятность возвращения на Украину, мне очень грустно. Я очень хотела лучшую жизнь для своих детей. К сожалению, мой жених оказался не готов принять ответственность. А может, как раз наоборот: ОН проявляет ответственность тем, что отказывается от намерения вступить в брак? Я не понимаю некоторые вещи, происходящие при этом. Почему я не могу убедить его в том, что на Украине детям и мне будет намного труднее, чем жить вместе с НИМ здесь, и решать постепенно все проблемы? Насколько ОН готов к одиночеству, если я уеду, ведь мы вместе мечтали о том, как будем жить до смерти? Мое сердце болит, когда я думаю о будущем своих детей, о себе, да и о НЕМ тоже. Как ни странно, после тяжелых разговоров, после почти физического отторжения ИМ меня, я все еще имею чувства, и я имею надежду. Она маленькая, она тает. Мне тяжело.
Есть некоторые приятные моменты, как результат жизни здесь в этот месяц.
Во-первых, все дети хорошо привыкают к школам, и даже Ксюша стала школьницей - в 5 лет!
Во-вторых, все они имеют успехи за три недели посещения школы, я слышу восторженные отзывы учителей об этом. Конечно, бывают и проблемы, но это незначительно, и постоянное взаимодействие с учителями и консулерами быстро устранает проблемы.
В-третьих, дети меньше ссорятся. Дом большой, есть чем заняться, не мешая другим, вот и уменьшаются ссоры.
В-четвертых, я научилась пользоваться кучей домашней техники, и мне это нравится :).
Но грусть съедает все. Грусть как прощание с неосуществленными надеждами. Я так верила ЕМУ! ОН так много обещал!

Здравствуй, Америка!

Здравсвуйте! Всем привет из другого полушария!
Доехали нормально, живы-здоровы. Привыкаем понемногу. Разместились хорошо. Погода спокойная, во дворе днем все так нагревается, что дети ходят в футболках. Дома тоже тепло. Девочки расположились в одной комнате, Диме досталась отдельная. Зимой сын Майка уедет служить на флот, тогда у каждого будет по комнате. И еще есть два недоделанных помещения на верхних уровнях. Чердаком сложно назвать, потому что хорошо отделаны стены и крыша, только покрыть еще чем-нибудь типа гипсокартона, сделать ниши(это здесь вместо шкафов), покрасить - и живи. Это сейчас самая приятная вещь после наших мытарств по квартирам :).
Народ кругом доброжелательный, уже познакомились с некоторыми. Нас особо не тревожат, не смотрят как на обезьян, хотя мы тут первые русские. Городок оказался больше, чем я думала, и симпатичней. Завтра будем смотреть окресности, сегодня все еще изучаем дом, и сонливость одолевает.
В общем, все у нас хорошо. До свидания!

Hello! All greetings from other hemisphere!
Have reached normally, are alive-are healthy. We get used gradually. Were placed well. Weather quiet, in a court yard in the afternoon all so heats up, that children go in T-shorts. At home too warmly. Girls have settled down in one room, Dima has got separate. In the winter son Mike will leave to serve on fleet then at everyone will be on a room. And still there are two left unfinished premises{rooms} on top levels. It is complex{difficult} to name an attic, because walls and a roof are well trimmed, only to cover still something of type of gypsum cardboard, to make niches (it here instead of cases) to paint - and live. It now the most pleasant thing after ours мытарств on apartments :).
People around benevolent, have already got acquainted with the some people. Us especially do not disturb, the first Russian do not look as at monkeys, though we here. The small town has appeared more, than I thought, and it is more nice. We shall look tomorrow city, today still we study{investigate} the house, and drowsiness overcomes.
In general, all at us is good. Good-bye!
Irina

I have visa!

Мы получили визы! Мы прилетим в США в ближайший месяц. Что и как будет потом я не знаю. Надеюсь, все будет хорошо. Меня ждет замечательный мужчина, и я надеюсь на лучшее. Я так же надеюсь познакомится со многими из вас. В Киеве я видела несколько американских пар, усыновляющих украинских детей. Я могу только радоваться за них :). Может быть, кто-то из них присутствует где-то рядом в блогах, я не имею возможности долго находится в Интернете :(. Ладно, всем привет, и всем пожелание удачи!

Скоро собеседование

On September, 29th I will talk to the consular officer in Embassy of the USA in Kiev. The heartrending experience is conversation expectation. Suddenly he will not want to start up us in the USA? I and my children we wish to have a normal family. But I should prove that we have good intentions, and we will not ask the help from the state. Strange, Americans can come to my country without obstacles. Why I should prove something to arrive to my favourite person?

No Internet!

I dont have Internet in my work! :(

Rapid news

I rarely am here

Я редко здесь бываю. Наверное, я смогу часто разговаривать с вами, когда приеду в США :). Мои документы задерживаются в USCIS. Я надеюсь все проблемы решатся до конца этого года :). Мои дети отдыхают. Они в порядке. Они были у бабушки 2 недели. Сейчас Dima and Natasha наслаждаются визитами на пляж. Ksusha and I можем ходить на пляж только в выходные дни.
Я по-прежнему наблюдаю ваши истории. Я добавлю свою новую фотографию, чтобы я не была забыта здесь :).
В понедельник летний Библейский лагерь начнет работу в нашей церкви. Скоро приедут американские студенты, которые будут заниматься с нашими детьми в лагере. Одна девушка будет жить в моей семье. Я буду практиковать английский язык :).
I rarely am here. Probably, I will be able often to speak with you, when will arrive in the USA :). My documents stay too long in USCIS. I hope all problems will decide to the end of this year :). My children rest. They all right. A grandmother had them 2 weeks. Now Dima and Natasha enjoy visits on a beach. Ksusha and I can go for a beach only in days off.
I look after your histories still. I will add the new picture, that I was not forgotten here :).
On Monday the summer Biblical camp will set to work in our church. The American students which will read with our children in a camp will arrive soon. One girl will live in my family. I will practice English :).

Expectation

I know, USCIS got to our Petition on about Junes, 2. But I do not have their answer! Where to take forces for expectation? :( Besides I do not have letters from Mike two days :( .... Hey, the USA does have problem with the Internet also?

Circus

Little reporting from a circus :). We visited him last week. Unfortunately, Ksusha is ill now, and I can not much write.

Internet

I was reprimanded from the authority for using the Internet :(. I will appear here little in the near time, just in case.
I continue to collect your advices about the home teaching. Thank you to all, who answered!

Home teaching

Please, tell me about the home teaching. That it? How does it take place?
That better for the Russian children: home teaching or public schools?
What experience do you have a? What did you prefer, bringing the children of school age from Russia and Ukraine?
What will you advise for my children?

Волнение

The update of USCIS shows today, that our Petition just about will be considered... Do you present how do I worry? In three weeks I will be able to say, whether wants to accept me America :).
Say, please, in America a school year begins before September, 1? Always and all over the same day?

Hot weather... and my son going in the USA :)

A summer began :). Unhappy schoolboys must walk in a school form :(. Soon they will make off employments, and will rest. You must know, we have little conditioners. Almost all apartments and busses will to show for you all "charms" in hot weather. Be ready to it, if you going on Ukraine in summer!
My son will depart to America ahead of me. He will study there. He is excited this new. I can nothing to write anymore about it now :).

News for DIMA

Мой Dima получил приглашение на учебу в Мичиганской Лютеранской Семинарии. Теперь мне надо выяснить, как правильно поступить. Я думаю, если он поедет сейчас, ему придется возвращаться на Украину, и получать потом визу здесь. Это мне не нравится. Мне надо узнать, сможет ли он легально остаться в США после окончания учебного года? Я не хочу проходить процедуру получения визы для него несколько раз, это делается трудно и долго.
My Dima got invitation on studies in Michigan Lutheran Seminary. Now I am necessary to find out how it is correct to act. I think, if he will depart now, he will have to return on Ukraine, and get then a visa here. I don't like it. Am I necessary to know, will he be able legally to remain in the USA after completion of school year? I do not want to reeve procedure of receipt of visa for him once or twice, it is done hardness and long.

International meetings

Hello! I here :). ( The English text is below)
Я не замужем. Это временное явление :). Мой первый муж был не готов к трудностям брака. Я тоже; но я приложила много сил для сохранения семьи. Все было напрасно. Отец моих детей стал потерянным человеком. Он не работает, не учится, он живет где найдет место. Он пьет алкоголь и играет в компьютер. Он живет на те средства, что были получены за продажу квартиры. Я имею после брака 3 детей. Это все мое богатство :). Три тысячи долларов я получила при разводе, они давно закончились. В трудное время я вынуждена была продать два золотых кольца. Я не имею жилья, и я арендую квартиру. Мне немного помогает сестра, она не имеет детей.
В прошлом году я познакомилась с особенным мужчиной. Он гражданин США, поэтому США скоро будет моей родиной :). Он обычный человек для вас, но он замечательный для меня. Наша история началась на сайте знакомств, каких много в Интернете. Да, я знаю, это не самый лучший способ знакомства, это иногда противно и неправильно. Да, я знаю, женщины на этих сайтах это живой товар. Но мне повезло! Я нашла своего мужчину.
На сайте знакомств вы можете найти милых и честных мужчин, так же, как и аферистов, бандитов, хулиганов, и просто скучающих типов, желающих развлечься. Вы можете найти там разных женщин: глупых и умных, смелых и трусливых, добрых и злых. Все так же, как и в реальной жизни. Вы вряд ли найдете там русских сельских девушек, они не имеют Интернет. Вы чаще будете видеть городских дам, не довольных жизнью. Возможно, они как и многие мужчины, просто развлекаются. В любом случае, включите бдительность и интуицию, если вы хотите пользоваться сайтом знакомств. Осторожно!
Мне писали несколько мужчин. Один почему-то не отвечал на мои вопросы, и писал очень нерегулярно. Второй был ОЧЕНЬ осторожен. Я понимаю его, но я не могу писать письма много лет, бесконечно примерять свои чувства. Тем более, если чувства не появились :). Тут появился третий. Он присылал стихи, восхищался мной, это насторожило меня. Я-то знаю, Я НЕ КРАСАВИЦА :). Через неделю знакомства он собрался прилететь: "я не могу жить без тебя!". Странно и страшно, думала я. Конечно, в намеченный день его прилета я получаю письмо: "Я в Африке, на меня напали, у меня отобрали все вещи, я имею только твой электронный адрес. Пришли мне 300 долларов на билет до США!". Вы представляете? Я не знала, я должна была смеяться или плакать? Он прислал пять таких писем. Я послала ему отсканированное изображение из поиска людей в США, где напротив его имени были перечислены его родственники, к которым он мог обратиться за помощью. Ну где вы слышали, чтобы билет из Африки до США стоил 300$? Если вы имеете возможность зайти в Интернет и в свой почтовый ящик там, ВЫ ВИДИТЕ МНОГО КОНТАКТОВ, а не только адрес малознакомой девушки.
Потом я нашла своего будущего мужа :). Некоторое время я продолжала переписываться с другими, потому что этот вид знакомства имеет особенность. Нельзя сразу узнать человека. Я знаю, мои первые корреспонденты это не плохие люди. Но это ЧУЖИЕ люди. Мой мужчина сразу стал моим. Возможно, после трех писем, я поняла - это он. Мы узнавали друг друга, и мы радовались каждой новой черте. Это чудо, мы нашли друг друга в таком необычном месте! Знаете, я редко буду советовать знакомиться таким способом. Но я нашла свою половину, и я благодарю Бога за эту удачу.
Я скажу необычную вещь. Благодаря Интернету я имею надежду. Надежда приблизила меня к Богу. Ровно год назад 20 мая я принимала первое Причастие. Спасибо Богу за все: за мои испытания, за радость в моей жизни. Все смешалось в одно: любовь это большое слово, это многогранное чувство.
Вы можете прочитать обо мне в американской газете. Откройте сайт http://www.tof.org/ , найдите газету за август 2007. Видите? На второй странице мой пастор Виктор, на четвертой странице мои девочки и я, и небольшая история обо мне. История получилась немного мрачная, но общий смысл верен. И там не написано о моей любви, которая греет мне сердце с прошлогодней весны :).
Annie, спасибо за интересный вопрос :). Я много вспоминаю, когда пытаюсь ответить :).
Я думаю, нужно осторожно искать русских (или украинских) жен или мужей. Мы испорчены. Мы не привыкли жить своим умом. Простой человек не умеет использовать свои знания для создания собственного благосостояния. Мы иждивенцы. Мы алкоголики. Мы можем оказаться хитрыми и коварными. Мы будем кричать о своей доброте, но мы будем плевать в огород соседа, и мы не протянем руку упавшему человеку. Ох, не все люди плохие! Я преувеличиваю, но надо хорошо разглядеть человека, с которым хочешь создать семью.
Вы знаете русских жен или русских мужей? Лично Вы знаете реальных людей, создавших международные семьи? Я хочу знать это. Что должна знать русская жена, чтобы семья стала счастливой?
I not married. It is the temporal phenomenon :). My first husband was not ready to difficulties of marriage. I also; but I attached many forces for the maintainance of family. All was vainly. The father of my children became the lost man. He does not work, does not study, he lives where will find a place. He drinks an alcohol and plays a computer. He lives on those facilities, that were got for the sale of apartment. I have 3 children after marriage. It all is my riches :). I got three thousand dollars at a divorce, they made off a long ago. In difficult time I am forced was to sell two gold rings. I do not have habitation, and I lease an apartment. I am a bit helped by a sister, it does not have children.
Last year I became acquainted with the special man. He is a citizen of the USA, therefore soon will be the USA my motherland :). He is an ordinary man for you, but he is remarkable for me. Our history began on the site of acquaintances, what much in the Internet. Yes, I know, it is the best not method of acquaintance, it sometimes oppositely and not correctly. Yes, I know, women on these sites it is a living commodity. But it was lucky me! I found the man.
On the site of acquaintances you can find nice and honest men, the same as and swindlers, gangsters, hooligans, and the simply bored types, persons interested to have fun. you can find different women there: foolish and clever, bold and cowardly, kind and wicked. All the same as and in the real life. You scarcely will find the Russian rural girls there, they do not have the Internet. you will see city ladies, not content with life more frequent. Possibly, they as well as many men, simply have fun. In any case, will include vigilance and intuition, if you want to use the site of acquaintances. Carefully!
A few men were written me. One for some reason did not answer my questions, and wrote very irregularly. The second was VERY careful. I understand him, but I can not write a letter many years, infinitely to try on the senses. The more so, if senses did not appear :). The third appeared here. He sent verses, delighted in me, it guarded me. I know, I am beautiful not WOMAN :). In a week acquaintances he going to arrive: "I can not live without you!". Strange and terrible, I thought. Certainly, in the set day of his arriving I get a letter: "I am in Africa, me attacked, for me took away all things, I have your electronic address only. 300 dollars came me on a ticket to the USA!". Do you present? Did not I know, I must was laugh or cry? He sent five such letters. I sent him a отсканированное image from the search of people in the USA, where opposite his name his relatives to which he could appeal for a help were transferred. Well where did you hear, that a ticket from Africa to the USA costed 300$? If you are in a position to call at the Internet and in the mailbox there, YOU SEE MANY CONTACTS, rather than just address of unfamiliar girl.
Then I found the prospective husband :). Some time I continued to correspond with other, because this type of acquaintance has a feature. It is impossible at once to know a man. I know, my first correspondents it is not bad people. But it is the STRANGER people. My man became my at once. Possibly, after three letters, I understood - it he. We knew each other, and we were glad every new line. It is a miracle, we found each other in such unusual place! you know, I rarely will advise to meet by such method. But I found the half, and I thank God for this success.
I will say an unusual thing. Due to the Internet I have a hope. Hope approached me to God. Exactly a year ago on May, 20 I accepted the first Participle. Thank you to God for everything: for my tests, for gladness in my life. All was mixed up in one: love it is a large word, it is many-sided sense.
You can read about me in the American newspaper. Open the site of http://www.tof.org/, find a newspaper for August 2007. Do you see? There is my pastor Victor on the second page, on a fourth page my girls and I, and small history about me. History turned out a bit gloomy, but general sense is faithful. And there it is not written about my love which warms me a heart from a last year's spring :).
Annie, thank you for an interesting question :). I remember much, when try to answer :).
I think, it is needed carefully to search the Russian (or Ukrainian) wives or husbands. We are spoiled. We did not get used to live by the mind. Simple a man is not able to use the knowledges for creation of own welfare. We иждивенцы. We are alcoholics. We can appear sly and insidious. We will yell about the kindness, but we will spit in the vegetable garden of neighbour, and we will not offer hand the disappointed man. Oh, not all people bad! I exaggerate, but it is necessary well to look over a man with which want to create family.
Do you know the Russian wives or Russian husbands? Personally do you know the real people, creating international families? I want to know it. What must the Russian wife know, that family became happy?
P.S. In September 2007 Mike and I conducted together 2 weeks. This was remarkable time :). We wait the new meeting, we do correspondence. Mike helps me.

My work, My life

I work for a firm which has a network of supermarkets in Sevastopol. Now there are 8 supermarkets. Three years I worked in the department of CASS of management. I was engaged in the conduct of reference books of commodities in a database. After a quarrel with the chief of department I went away. I shopped around in other places. But went back into a that firm, in other department :). I thought, I needed to be here not long, I will work with the acquainted people and use the old knowledges. But new speciality kills me! I must check up the results of taking of inventory of commodity in supermarkets. I must be wicked, I must disbelieve people, I must search their errors, and I must punish them. Hardness to work so to the man which trusts people. I stand, I wait an answer from USCIS, and I have a hope. I soon will leave from here. Is there sense to search other work? On Saturdays I work as a cashier in a supermarket, for additional earnings. I am a good cashier :). But work of cashier is paid little, it is a fag for my back, and there I will be cut from the Internet. I stand therefore.
My day. I rise about 7 AM. Ksusha and I going ride in kindergarten on a bus. Then I ride on work in an office in other end of city. I begin to work in 9 AM (a road to the workplace makes about 1-1,5 hour). Two times in a week I rise in 6 AM, before to ride in supermarkets for verification. I return home in 6-7 PM. I have два-три hour for home businesses and for children :(. Oh, I forgot to say, almost every day I wash clothes hands in the morning or in the evening, it very tiresomely.
Reading it, you will understand easily, why ordinary people here smile rarely. I am an optimist, but also my optimism tests the serious loading in this life. I earn about 300 dollars in a month. My sister has very little more. We bring in rent for an apartment 400 $. Will you be able so to live? We live :). But I do not have time to study to English, when I live so.
Greatest gladness it is children, and our future with a new dad in America :).
Greatest grief it мама-алкоголик, it lives in a mud flow, in a house more senior 100 years, not having comforts, and not having a desire to live :(.

My church

My church is very long built. Whole year we conduct service in a basement apartment. We are satisfied, that have it, in fact before we leased a hall for the leadthrough of Sunday services! Last year, building is conducted very slowly. We lived the winter with electric heaters. Nasha sunday-school worked every resurrection, thank you daughters of our pastor!
It a story comments pictures: my church. A grass grew higher my Ksusha! There is not sense to take away a grass, because on a background building it decorates landscape :).

We go after Natasha

Here that we have after a few minutes pursuits after Natasha!

Sad mood

Today I was reprimanded by the chief. I did not know how to react. I do not want, that the young girl learned me how TO NOT TRUST people. I cannot explain to it, that it is not right. She is the spoilt girl of rich parents who has received a post for self-confidence and some other properties inherent in an armored car... I feel on an another's place :(.
My sister talks: sit quietly, take no notice. Well, I calm down. I as a little girl, I am very sensible to criticism! It badly for my age. It not nearly needs me now. Patience, I must have patience. I put on earpiecess, I listen music, I do not hear colleagues. I am much better! :)
A few days I did not peep here, there were days off, and yesterday the Internet worked very modestly. I have some questions from you, answer today :).
About the middle name for children. This theme is curious me. All family of my prospective husband members have two names. It interestingly, and I began to pick up the names the children. We decided to give my son the name of his father, because he is the unique child which got some love from a father. He did not accept girls in the heart. But he loved a son. For this love a son will remember a father and carry his name.
My junior daughter will accept as the middle name the middle name of Mike's mother :). It sounds beautifully Ksenya Kay. Possibly, we сделаем othergates, but now I like so :). Natasha showed large doubts in the choice of the name. Therefore we decided to set aside this business.
I want the second name on your own similarly :). But it is my little game for own pleasure. I have an interesting variant :). I do not know actually, whether it is possible to add me the name. This game with the names distracts me from matters of course :).
Annie, you are rights: in America we will miss on Russian. Therefore we will use any possibility to talk in Russian. Well, you live in Michigan, we will meet necessarily :).
I will place pictures here, as soon as will have them. My senior children do not like to be taken pictures :). Ksusha imitates them and escapes from a camera also :). The day before yesterday I did a few pictures, but I did not process them. It will be soon!
P.S. I am better after the visit of bloggs :) . Now it is a good mood :).

All little by little

I do not hurry to think of the middle name for children now. We will do it then :).
My Natasha will have 12 years at the end of summer. I search the teacher of English for she, she must much know before a move. I must teach English also, but I do not have a spare time for this purpose :(.
Dima is able to communicate in English. Certainly, he must much know also. Now I worry about his education in the USA. My boy has talent in the study of mathematics, physics and informatics. In the nearest two years he will be goes to senior school, but then he must find a good university. Or at first college?
Annie sent me the co-ordinates of universities in Michigan, thank you! All the same hardness me to be oriented now herein. As all mothers, I want the best for the child. He does not know how to use his school knowledges. Our school does not teach to adapt to life. Children study studies only!
I continue to acquire new friends here. Research of this space is endless! We live in Ukraine with uneasy a government, with the indefinite future. We concentrated on the problems. I am glad to know about existence people in other countries, and about their anxieties :). I am glad to get a letter in Russian language from Annie, it does distance between you and me not noticeable :). I think, we will meet once. Possibly, at the end of autumn.

Mum's friend :)

I hardly not forgot to rotin mum's friend :)

Цветы

I want to rotin the beautiful side of life also. My mother lives hardness. But it always decorates living by colors. God does not refuse it in this little gladness :).

About me again :)

I can not manage with placing of pictures! They are glued wherein comfortably them, but not wherein I want :(.
I answer a question. There is a little city West Branch in Michigan. I will live there :).
A strange thing takes place with prices on Ukraine. When the course of dollar rose, our prices had been increased. When the course of dollar fallen down, our prices had been increased again. The course of dollar fallen down now, and the course of euro fallen down similarly. Our prices grow still! Can it be explained logically? :)
I have many pictures from Mum's of settlement. I know, it look like many places on Ukraine and in Russia. When I grew there, and concluded studies at school (1978 - 1988), a settlement had normal life. Then local industry and agriculture began to collapse. People depart in cities. Children after school depart also. Many people left in other countries. Spain and Italy - there women work in houses and in agriculture. Western Europe - there men work in building, on a transport, in agriculture, women in trade. I am afraid to think where they work yet :(. Therefore we have many children without parents. People want to live, and many of them do not care of the children. I see a situation so. I do not apply on that I am rights on 100 %.

Trip

My son in two weeks will have 16 years :). He will get a passport and there will be a grown man man... almost :). He is a clever boy, but he is badly adjusted to life. He did the first independent trip on past week. This was a journey to the grandmother, it lasted three days. There are some pictures of that place, where he was. So, are you ready to see the Ukrainian village?

My life now

On my page guests began to appear :). It is pleasant for me. It tempts me on writing some information about itself, what I am now.
Now we have an interesting week. It contains only two workers of day. Is such in the USA? :) The day of labour occupies two days, then weekend. And Monday was an output in the day-time, because a country celebrated orthodox Easter.
I am Lutheran. I am not friends with by an orthodox church. Well let it live, only without me :). However much my church marks Easter together with the Orthodox church, so comfortably to do in my country. Here some pictures from Sunday service. Small congratulation from sunday-school in the end :).
I answer the question of Chris and Virginia: yes, our documents are processed USCIS. It appeared unexpectedly long for me. But however we must get a decision in June. Then I will be able to plan the life more certainly :). I would like to get in the USA this year, in fact expectation very painfully. One good man waits me and my three children in Michigan. We will be a good monogynopaedium.
I do not remember how I found Bloggs about adoption. Seems, I searched different things on this theme. Now I here. I read, I pray. I will be soviet, if someone from you will find the children in my town, in Sevastopol. Then you will have a friend and helper here. My children a bit know English, and two daughters of pastor freely speak in English.
Today I walked in Boarding-school. I congratulated a girl and boy with 15-летием. I found an inexpensive clock for them, it not enough, but it is necessary things for them. This will be their OWN clock. I see, the state provides children the most necessary things for physical existence. But these children need parents :(. A few Boarding-schools have Sevastopol, and two Child at home.
I have little time for the Internet. But I with pleasure will write for you, if I will get questions :).

Kulich

The day after tomorrow slavonic countries celebrate Easter the Main dish on a festive table it Kulich I am not able his stove, I know, dough consists of plenty of eggs, sugar, similarly there is a flour, yeasts and milk Recipe can be looked Here my first guest before a holiday :)

gifts ???

I took some things in Boarding-school recently. I knew, youth and girl would have a birthday on April, 30, they will have for 15 years. I want to do gifts for them, but does not know, what things to purchase. Minimum it will be sets of delicious things from McDonalds :)

Жизнь двигается вперед
Не все так хорошо, как хотелось бы
Моя самая большая радость это дети

Sad ideas

Visitors seldom look here, and I still do it less often :). But today I can write pair words about. I have problems with an apartment. The owner of an apartment where I live, has made the rent impossible... I do not know how to make better. The next search and crossing will take away many forces. Probably, it is necessary to suffer some months. You always know, what is the time USCIS will process your documents? You changed the address during such processing? I do not wish to send them new data. Therefore I have found work in the same firm where worked earlier. And I shall remain in this apartment all period of expectation of a message from USCIS :(.
I am compelled to hide the ideas on orphans. I help them in process of the opportunities: some boys-orphans have received gifts on a man's holiday. Soon female holiday. 13 girls will wait for me this day. Babies in Children's home do without my help now because my purse is lean and almost transparent :(. Thanks my future husband in America, it enables my children to be full and dressed :). I am compelled to be egoist, and my prays are filled by requests for my family. When I read histories about adoption of the Ukrainian children, I pray about happiness and health of these children and their new parents. You will allow me to name you my friends? You, my new friends, do not forget to name me in your prays!
Tami, Melissa, Christine, Miche, Kath, I wish to be as you :)

I have lost work the day before yesterday.... I have given myself a fine gift at date of a birth! I am free from the boorish boss!!! But I have remained without the Internet and without my new friends: (. I shall appear here seldom now. In any case, I continue to pray for Americans, for their American, Russian and Ukrainian children!!!

We choose names

How much ridiculously? :) I have hardly found how to create the message :)! Now I shall try to load a photo here. She is my daughter, Natasha. We search for it middle for a name. Will help with search? :)

Oh, I am able to write!

I usually read, you have already guessed:) I am surprised, I am well surprised by the Americans adopting the Ukrainian children. I like it. I know, about what I should prays!
