Wow....what at long flight home! I thought we were never going to get home. We were up for 24 hours straight! We were exhausted last night. But we were so excited to see Gracie. I gave her the biggest hug and kisses! She did a great job while we were out of town. My mom and dad were amazing with her.
Last night Gracie could not stop talking about her sister. She said she is going to teach her how to walk and talk. And she is even going to teach her how to jump in the deep end of the pool!!! The last three days of school, she has taken new pictures of her sister to show everyone at school. She is so proud.
Life is GREAT! God has blessed us in so many ways. We are so very thankful.
Today, Charles flies to India....yes....India!!! Bless his heart. He has two 9 hours flights. His poor body is going be a mess. His mind is going to have no idea what time it is. He is a trooper. He could have taken a flight from Russia to India, but he wanted to share the moments with me on the flight back and also see Gracie's face when she talked about her new sister. He is the GREATEST!!!!
Well, we are not sure when we get to return to Russia. We have two more trips to Moscow before we get to bring her home. But our translator told us it could be July or September. In the meantime, we are going to get our house ready for a baby. Cribs, high chairs, changing table....etc. Wow...I have my work cut out for me!!!
Thanks again for everyone's thoughts and prayers. You all are amazing!
