Shopping in Ukrainian


Karina and her friends at the Orphanage.


Another amazing day with Karina. At this point we are waiting for our court date. I misunderstand that it was this Friday. It has not been scheduled as of yet but it will probably be Friday the 17th. Since today and tomorrow are Ukrainian holidays we will not know until Tuesday or so when our court hearing is scheduled. I will remain hopeful and pray that it is Friday so we can be home sooner rather then later.

The 17th is also Karina's Ukrainian graduation of sorts. They graduate them out at 16. Sooooooo, we got to go shopping for a pretty dress. Karina, who I found out is not a dress person, went completely gaga over this amazingly beautiful dress. So, of course I bought it for her. It was a full length summer tunic sheer dress with a short slip underneath. So basically the best of both world, a short and long dress in one. Hard to example. It was very elegant. It cost a total of 170 Ukrainian dollars or just a little more then $20 American. I think I made her millennium. She was so thankful and appreciative. We are going shopping for shoes tomorrow, yeah.
