The day has come, May 22nd, one month later then I thought, but God's perfect timing. We have about 20 extra pounds in our luggage, the school work that Yana has to complete before she gets home. Everything is packed, and I mean everything. I can't wait for our facilitator to see our luggage. One bag is gifts for the orphanage and the group home that "Heart for Orphans" has established. The rest is ours and Yana's is the heaviest. Our friend Dale will be here at 11:30 a.m. to drive us to Richmond airport. Our flight to New York is at 2:00 p.m and we leave New York at 630 p.m. We arrive in Kiev at 11:10 in the morning (with the 7 hour time change).
We have said our good byes, we have been prayed over, and all the bills have been paid, now the dog gets walked for the last time and off we go.
God Bless this portion of your journey. I pray that we bring Koyla home and we will be in your perfect will.

About Me
- Rahn's Journey
- We are in our mid-fifties, married for 25 years before we adopted our first child in 2008 from Ukraine. Yana, our daughter, has been a blessing. We thought we were out to adopt 2 girls, God's plan was different, He has included a younger boy. Both Rick and I have never had a greater honor in our lives then the Journey of Adoption. Seeing God through this journey has been an adventure to draw closer to Him. Adventures are not easy, but they are exciting.

Look out Ukraine! Here come the Rahn's. (That was Rob's comment) We hope your journey is speedy and we are looking forward to your new son coming home. The weather should be better for this trip versus the last one. Hopefully Dale didn't tell you not to bring shorts.
Blessings,

Go go go! Can't wait to see what God does. Praying for you.

Praying for a safe and quick journey. Happy that you'll soon have a "Kolya" soon. Wouldn't trade mine for the world!
Thinking of you and praying for a safe journey! :)
