One Month Ago Today.....

Dear Roman & Max:

It's been a month since we left you both in Russia and came back home to the states. We miss you very much but have been busy trying to complete our next round of paperwork so we can come back to Ekaterinburg soon to bring you home with us! Papa and I have been busy here not only doing our paperwork and doctor visits but we have been busy getting the house ready for you! We have gotten a crib for Max and Roman ... we have bed all set and ready for you .... and there are a few monkeys in the room waiting to hang out with you!!!

Another family we have met through the adoption process is in Ekaterinburg right now getting ready to bring their new daughter home and they've said that it is STILL snowing in Russia. Things are a little bit different here in New York, we've had some warm sunny days, a preview to summer and yesterday Mama spent the day planting flowers around the yard ... with a little help from Lucy.

We miss you boys and we can't wait to get the paperwork done so we can come back and see you and get everything finalized with the adoption so we can bring you home! There are alot of people here who can't wait to meet you, we've showed your pictures to everyone we know and everyone says how cute you both are!

We know you are being well cared for .... one month down .... hopefully we will be back in another few months to bring you home!

Love,
Mama and Papa

Hi Christine,

What a sweet letter. Your boys will just love reading this as they get older.
It is amazing how much love can bloom and how attached we all become to our children who are continents away!
I am praying for a speedy trial for the four of you!
