With heavy hearts and logical minds, we have been waiting for movement in Russia.
Unfortunately, for Sweden it has arrived.
Sweden, a country that allows same sex marriage, has been banned from adopting from Russia for this reason. This is what was expected, and Canada will soon be next.

The two Russian adoption agencies in Canada that have been closed are going back to their regular hours. Including ours. I look forward to hearing from them, although I don't know what more than can tell us.
We'll keep this blog updated with as much information as we can.
