Pieces of my Heart: Our 2nd Adoption from Ukraine. Saturday, December 10, 2011. Although already citizens when they land on US soil, the Immigration office requires that children age 14 and over participate in the official swearing in ceremony. This is very odd to me since a) they are already US citizens and b) most speak little or no English and have NO CLUE what they are saying!

Adopting Amber: September 2011
http://macysplus2.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Saturday, September 24, 2011. Tonight we went to the local carnival. The rides looked safer than the ones that show up in our home town. It was fun. Maybe go again tomorrow after the circus. Found a close restaurant today with a reasonable variety of food. I liked the pizza but it was close to a meat pie in taste and Melissa did not like the dill they used all over it. Our favorite place to eat is over by the open market but I doubt we will walk the 4.5km to get there at night. Friday, September 23, 2011.
