Another Momentous Day

It was one year ago today (Jan. 22) that we met our sons. We played for a few minutes, named them in 7 minutes and then headed off to Krasyliv to get permission to adopt and to witness a prolonged argument in Ukrainian. while in Krasyliv we took in the sights, sounds and smells...communist architecture, Lenin, stray dogs, junk cars...good times. We still had no idea that we'd have to bribe , er "bring gifts" a mere 24 hours later.

We celebrated the day by reading the note from Thomas' Pre-K teacher wherein she suggests he may be on the verge of getting bounced...kind of makes you long for Lenin and the stray dogs of Krasyliv.

Everyone had said that children change your lives, but there is no wa we could have imagined how all encompassing that cold be. That said, we can't imagine life without Matthew and Thomas.
