Don't give up on all the waiting kids in Russia... I'd send in the application. In the meantime, they should implement all of the changes and get adoptions back on track in Russia. It's a bad situation for everyone in the middle or toward the end of the process right now, but I can't help but think about all the little boys and girls we've seen there who desperately need parents and homes. As Vicki suggested, you might wait a few days to see how all of the changes are implemented. Ask your agency a lot of questions...
