Vlad is excited to see me and he wants to go home soon. Dima was asking Oleg to take him to his home town. He said he was tired and did not like to be in the orphanage. He has a dream and he wants to have a little computer, so I wanted to show him this one, but I do not want all the kids to see it.

It looks like a lot of miracles have happened. Oleg was telling me about how he got Dima's birth certificate. It looks like it was a real ordeal. He says that he went to the town and he was supposed to get the birth certificate but the notification from the judge of the parent's losing the rights was not there. He had a copy but they did not accept it. He was told to go to another city to get it. He did not have problems getting the mother's, but the father's. The lady of the office gave him a hard time. She said she would make the paper saying that the parents had lost the rights in two weeks, Oleg asked to please make the note right away, and explained to her why and that she would be blessed if she would do it and she said NO. Then Oleg left and went to say a prayer, and came back and told the lady I will stay here for two weeks and will not leave and wait for you to make the note, and she said I will call the police, and Oleg said then call the police, and then she went and talked to the judge and he came asking what was going on. Oleg responded that the court had not sent the notification of the decision of the parental rights being lost and that it has been over two years, and it was not the other offices fault not to have a copy of the notification. He explained that Dima was getting adopted and needed to have his papers to leave with me and that I had come from the US and had reservations to leave on the 24th. Then the judge ordered the lady to make the note right there and even then she still did not want to but the judge made her do it and that is how he got it. What a miracle!
