Trip #2

It is hard to believe we are about to leave again already. Of course I say this on the flip side. That was NOT my perspective a few weeks ago. The time seemed to drag on. But here we are, preparing to leave Wednesday morning. The main purpose of this trip is to have medical exams in Moscow (fun!) and head to the region where our little guy is for two days of court. We can't wait to see him again! Assuming all goes well, we should be able to return in about 2 weeks to finally "break him out of there" and begin this new chapter in our lives. It's been a long Preface and we are ready to get on with the rest of the book.

We celebrated Gracie's 6th birthday this past weekend which was lots of fun. She has a tooth barely hanging on and we are hoping that we can call the Tooth Fairy in before we leave. We will see. Tori is ready to celebrate her birthday before we leave as well, but unfortunately I am not quite as prepared as Tori would like me to be. Don't feel too bad for her...she gets to go to Florida with her best friend over Spring Break.

We hope to update you very soon. We truly appreciate all of your thoughts and prayers throughout this process. Thank you!
