CELEBRATIONS ARE IN ORDER!!

HOORAY!! After a grueling 3 hour court session with a scrutinizing judge with an "eye" for extreme detail, we became parents of two sweet Russian Boys!! The judge was very thorough and thoughtful and all of the supporting cast of the court were very positive and supported the adoption. I will explain more of the process and the details later this week. All in all it was a beautiful experience even though a bit long!! We are glad it is over!! We will give the details later this week. When they Prounounced us as the Proud Parents, Wayne started to cry!! He is so sweet and sensitive. As soon as I saw his tears of joy and relief, then I too, joined in!! Everyone present was happy for us. We are physically exhausted from playing with and chasing the boys today. They are both so sweet.......but very active. Wayne and I have decided we will both need to start taking Geritol just to keep up (HA!) In addition, we are emotionally drained from court this morning, so we will fill all of you in on the details later this week. Thank you all for you prayers! We felt your strength and love all the way here in Siberia!! We appreciate all your thoughts, prayers and well wishes!! We are so blessed to have these children in our family now, and to have the wonderful support and encouragement from all of you. Many times you held us up high with encouragement when we were discouraged over some "snag" in the process. God Bless all of you for helping us!! Tonight the whole family is Happy!! More to come........
