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 9

Today was a restful day - didn't do much. We are definitely getting homesick and counting down the days knowing that we will be home soon. Logan has been a little more cranky than usual, but I think it is because a new tooth is coming through. Or maybe he knows he's leaving his birthplace and going to a strange new land - who knows! German has been gone the past 2 days with another family who just picked up their son from Kaluga also. They just got in tonight and we are excited for Logan to have a playmate for the next couple of days! Maybe they knew each other from the baby home! Anyways, we're signing off for the night and will talk to you all tomorrow. Love and miss you!
