So many exciting things are happening in my little blog land! Sira had her court date and is officially Max's mom. The 10-days are not waived in Vlad. but she'll get to visit with him! Congrats to Sira and Cliff!!!
Adrienne and Jim are leaving on Sunday to go through the same process Sira just went through so they can bring Owen home! I'm so excited for them! Adrienne is someone that has been so sweet to me during this beginning part of my journey and I wish her nothing but the best! I hope I can be 1/4 as poised as she is when I'm in her shoes! :-)
Please keep both of these families (and everyone else that is traveling that I don't yet know about!) in your thoughts and prayers! The adoption roller coaster is a crazy and wild one and the second trip is no exception!!
On a side note, there was a show on the Discovery channel Tuesday. It was called "Siberian Adoption Story" and it follows two families through their journey to adopt. The funny part was, when I recorded it, I had no idea the families used the same agency I am! It was a great show because it shows you the current process (for the most part). I'll be burning it to DVD for our parents so they can see how complex this is and, especially, how extremely emotional it is. I checked to see if it was going to be on again soon so I could tell you all, but it doesn't appear to be! I'll keep an eye out.
Have a great weekend! Good luck Adrienne and Jim!!
Hugs -
Becky

I just found your blog. It looks like you almost have your dossier complete! Congratulations on getting the "magic paper (1-797)!" Best wishes as you choose a region!
Becky - Would it be possible for you to burn a DVD of the Siberian Adoption Story for me? I could send you something for the cost of the DVD and postage. You are on the CHI 1st time parents Yahoo group, aren't you; I could e-mail you my address and all or if you go to my blog and clickmore about me in the profile, I believe there is a link to e-mail me.
Becky,
Email me anytime at beaglefarm1@yahoo.com
Yes - things have been getting good in blog land!! I hope we aren't far behind as we are all ready to go meet our little ones!!
Thank you, Becky, for all your sweet wishes and words about me! We are so happy to be back in Vlad and can't wait for court to be over with Friday! We are praying for the 10 days to be waived but know it is rare for this to happen. It was so good to see our little Owen today. He is still so tiny for his age but has many more teeth and much more blonde hair! He was so happy with us, as usual. We have a long way to go development-wise, but he is such a precious little boy, we can't wait to get him home.
Best wishes to you as you get that dossier finished!
Adrienne :O)
