Well, we leave tomorrow for our 3rd, last, and most important trip to Bryansk, Russia.
Its hard to imagine that Ken and I will leave this country familiar with our life and its routine, only to return as completely changed people. After 24 long months of consecutive "no's" to our dream of parenthood, on Monday, we will finally hear "yes". Nothing could make us more overjoyed.
So, we leave our house in the most pristine condition. Angelina's room is set and ready to go. Our cabinets are packed with sippy cups, mini plates, and toddler silver wear. We have fun toys scattered around the house. Car seats and safety gates in place. I do know as well as anyone that the peacefulness of the house will be fast outlived once we arrive home, but I welcome the chaos that will soon be upon us!
Stay tuned for gotcha day...

Dear Ken & AD: Sending you blessings for an auspicious journey: "Durga, Durga, Durga" - even if you get this after your departure, may it apply symbolically as well to your new life as a FAMILY! Welcome little Angel! We can't wait to meet you. Much love and best wishes!
Uncle Gordon & Aunt Suzie
Yeah!! You must be overjoyed! We are so excited for the both of you and wish you a safe trip filled with precious memories. Best of luck!

God's speed you two. Congratulations for the umpteenth time to all three of you for finding each other. And again, I think Angelina is one of the luckiest little girls in the world to get the two of you as parents. I'll be thinking about all of you. Take care. Can't wait to meet Angelina when things die down to a dull day-in-the-life of a toddler. (Well, things are never dull with a toddler, but I still can't wait to meet her...)
