Can't Stop Smiling
We met with little Katya today for about 1 1/2 hours. She didn't stop moving! She was so alert and engaged in toys. She is teething up a storm. We had trouble getting pictures without toys in her mouth. She is even crawling!!! She appears so healthy. Every sound caught her attention. She was born in April, so we can't go to court until then. Russian law says the baby has to be one year old before being adopted. It will be a long few months, but she will be worth the wait. We do need to take a trip in January as well to handle some paperwork, but it will be a quick trip. The moment I saw her, I starting crying. I wish I could share pictures, but you will all have to wait! Trust me, she is precious! She is eurasian with big brown eyes and dark hair. Can you tell I'm in love???

I felt so terrible for you yesterday but wow does GOD work in strange ways. We are so happy you have found your daughter. Have a safe trip home.
Jeanette,
I agree with your sister Denise - if I cry one more time - Joe may start to think something is really wrong...I love reading your post and pray all works out - please keep posting!!!!
Love to you and Brad and baby girl!
Jeanette....I'm sooo very haoppy for you and your family! Its just amazing when things work out just the way they were supposed to. She sounds wonderful. Thats a bit of a bummer you need to make a second "1st trip" but of course she's worth it!!
And think you for your words of encouragement to me. It means a lot at a time when I feel so low and alone. I am hoping your prayers reach those darn officials!!
Oh my gosh...I didn't have access to a computer for a few days...I am so glad to read this all at once and know there is a happy ending otherwise would have been bawling on the floor. SO HAPPY for you!! The 4 months will go by quickly.
Enjoy the rest of your time with her!!
Just WOW.
