We are here. We had a crazy flight over. Our original flight turned out to be delayed and we would have missed ourconnection to Moscow so Delta had to send us to another airport pronto last Wednesday and we had to rush through to catch another flight. Delta was great and there's more to the story, but it will have to wait.
We spent the night in Moscow and then traveled to Izhevsk by plane Friday morning. Windy!! Need I say more.
We spent three nights in an apartment with a woman and her mother. All was well. No internet so we couldn't post although our rep did everything within her power to find internet for us. We finally got a couple of emails home by using a neighboring apartments email yesterday.
Court tomorrow morning at 9 a.m. Bright and early - midnight eastern standard time. Please pray. We are nervous and will have to go in by ourselves and use the court translator. All should be fine, but again we are nervous.
Our son is wonderful! We have spent the last four days bonding with him and he now calls me mama and Troy papa and he runs to us with open arms and great eye contact. And when he giggles - boy he giggles and it will just melt your heart. Wish us luck!!!

Rachel- We'll be praying for your court today! I hope when you return to Moscow you will have internet. I'm sure that has been difficult. Hang in there... does that region wave the 10 day wait at all?
Praying that court goes smoothly for you tomorrow. It's wonderful things are going so well with your son!
What a journey!! Glad you made it there safely.
Good luck in court tomorrow. We'll be sending prayers and positive thoughts your way!

Sending prayers and well wishes for court. Can't wait to see pictures of your little one. Glad you arrived safely.
I have to say I was starting to worry a little bit. What a story. I am so glad to hear about your little one. I will send only good thoughts to you for court.

I am so excited and my prayers are with you- court will be fine. Max still calls Cliff Papa- and I don't think he will ever say Daddy. Maybe you little guy will do the same with Troy. I find it to be very endearing
Oh your description of your son made me teary-eyed! You deserve to have such a sweet little boy! :) I'm so glad you made it there safely and will pray for a great court experience tomorrow! I'm sure it will be just fine. Just be yourselves and show that judge how much you love your sweet little son! Can't wait to hear all about it and to finally see your son's face!!
So glad you are in Iz safe and sound. I've been worried about you. We will absolutely keep you in our prayers for court. I cannot wait to hear that your son is officially yours and that you are in the process of bringing him home! How sweet that he already knows his momma and papa! It does melt your heart!
I will be sending prayers your way for court, I'm sure it will be fine. Glad you have had a few days to spend with your little boy beforehand.
Good luck!
Glad you are safe. We will be praying for a very smooth court hearing.
