I know we’ve mentioned the sorry state of many of the roads in Ukraine but just in case you think we’re exaggerating, this is the “pot holes ahead” sign just outside Sumy. I assure you the size of the holes are appropriately in proportion to the car on the sign.
Hi. In 2010 we traveled to Ukraine to adopt a child. This blog was a chronicle intended for our families and friends but I've left it on-line for anyone else who may find our experiences useful.
"Ivan" was the "working title" we started using for our prospective child. Our adoption process took twice the time we were told it would so we were trying to free Katerina from the isolation of an institutional orphanage to our family. And we were trying to get ourselves back home too.
