Wow! Looking at your "name picture thingy" it's amazing to see how she's grown. She looks so happy, and you sound so content.
Continued joy! Kate

KiraLin...we didn't make to Moscow until about July 19th. The region where my daughter is from didn't waive the 10days, but at least I had custody of her for the whole time while I was still in her region. We had awesome bonding time.
