My mama's an OT, so I am working on my pincer grasp, of course!!
Infamous "Must Have" Family Photo
We went back into the little church Jeff and I went into for trip 1 (before we went out to Kirov to meet little man) -- we wanted to give proper thanks to those rooting for us from heaven, so we went in, got 3 candles again... this time, Little Man lit his candle first with our help, and we lit ours from his... then we stood the 3 of them together and said a little prayer of thanks....for we surely surely are...He is amazing, he is wonderful, he is a miracle...

God is surely smiling that his plan for you family is coming true! Aslan sounds like his is doing well and his parents sound like they are holding up! Sleep deprivation is the badge of parenthood! Welcome to the club!
How touching that you went back to light the three candles in gratitude for your LM (little miracle-man). Though he's feeling some emotional unease with all the change in his life,I have no doubt that he'll adjust with flying colors. And, you'll adjust to being tired out by a toddler! :)You really are a family now & your extended family on earth & in heaven are rejoicing with you three beautiful people. Can't wait to see you! God bless.
Love & more hugs,
Aunt Norine & Uncle Tom
I remember so well Alec being obsessed with my shoes when he got home. I have some great pics of him with my shoes! All in all you sound like you are doing great as a family! I feel like I am living this with you, Jeff and Aslan which is heart warming. Thanks for doing a great job of staying up with your blog as you adapt to being a family in Moscow. I will never know how you do it all! You are amazing! Your Sunday in Moscow looked like our Sunday life here on the East coast. Chilly and overcast! You will be home real soon and the weather improves here through out the week. We can not wait to see all of you face to face! Keep plugging along my friend!
Aslan looks more and more beautiful each time you post a picture! Love the wonderful memeories that the 3 of you are making! ~Donna
That is so great you got to back to the chapel with him, what an amazing memory. Love the shoe pic, we all know how obsessed with shoes Maks is!
Hang in there with the sleep, feel your pain, it isn't easy-poor little man and poor mama!
Few more days and you will be home forever!! can't wait!
Love seeing the updates and pictures, Amy. I'm thinking of you several times a day.
Be well, take care, and keep enjoying that little man :)
Hugs!
I am truly touched and in full blown tears reading the past few posts. What an incredible family and journey and non more deserving then you. Aslan is absolutely breath taking. I simply could not be happier and more addicted to your writing and pictures. Safe travels and congratulations!!
PS... we broke our kids in early too upon landing in Moscow. I think they all ate in a pub the first night we landed. Rest assure, they all seem okay to me. :)
What a wonderful opportunity to have all three of you stop in the same church again! It is truly amazing how God brings families together.
The first Polish word my husband had to learn was "buti" as the girls were obsessed with everyones shoes. Everyone sounds like they are doing great, even without sleep :)
