FINALLY

One hundred-sixty-seven days ago today, Mike and I held a beautiful little boy in our arms for the very first time and gave him the only things we could: our hearts and a promise to return for him...In one-hundred-six days, on 24 August, we will FINALLY get the opportunity to keep that promise when we stand before the judge and claim him as ours legally, and then give him a few more things: a loving family, a home of his own, 9 crazy cats, and his father's name, Michael, Jr....No longer counting the days since we left him the first time, but counting down the day until we bring him home...

Congratulations Judy & Mike! Start working on your "Angarsk Vacation Package" and soon it will be August. I'm so happy for Skip to finally come home after all of the waiting. You are all lucky to have found each other.
