Legacy of an Adopted Child

"Once there were two women, who barely knew each other. One is in your heart forever, the other you'll call mother. Two different lives, shaped to make yours one. One became your guiding star, the other became your sun. The first gave you life, and the second taught you how to live it. The first gave you a need for love, and the second was there to give it. One gave you nationality, the other gave you a name. One gave you the seed of talent, the other gave you an aim. One gave you emotions, the other calmed your fears. One saw your first sweet smile, the other dried your tears. One gave you a family, it was what God intended for her to do. The other prayed for a child, and God led her straight to you. And now you ask me, through your tears, the age old question through the years. Heredity or environment....which are you a product of? Neither my darling...neither, just two different kinds of love". - Unknown

Day 4

We had another wonderful day together as a family. We were even able to keep Logan exactly on his schedule - every feeding and 2 great naps! We had to go and get his picture for his visa taken and we bought him some shoes. This boy has some WIDE feet, so it was kind of hard to find one that fit - but we did and they will work for now. German went to Kaluga today to get Logan's passport and I think tomorrow we have another free day - we will have to find out from German tomorrow. Logan is still full of giggles and smiles every day and I just can't believe how blessed we are. Dennis is such a wonderful daddy - a great bottle maker and diaper changer too :) It makes me smile every time I see my 2 boys together. One week from today and Logan will turn 1 and we will be packing to go home!!! I hope this week flies by!!!! We hope all of you are doing well and we miss you all! Talk to you tomorrow.
