All paperwork done, all systems go to come home!!

Dear family and friends,

We have now arrived back into Moscow after an eventful flight from Kemorovo. The flight was 4 hours long and Liam terrorized the business man next too us. We are thankful that we had a bulkhead row or he would have terrorized the seats in front of us.

We are enjoying Liam very much. He does have a little temper and he has well developed lungs. We believe that he used them both to get his way in the orphanage. A little yelling and smiles seems to have kept him healthy and a favorite in the orphanage.



After arriving back at the hotel, we hung out and just enjoyed Liam.



Friday was filled with trips to the doctor and the US Embassy to receive his Visa and paperwork. Interesting that when immigration stamps his passport, he will officially be a US citizen.


It's now Saturday morning, weather is nice so we are going to take a walk to Red Square and the Kremlin. Probably stop at McDonald's along the way.

We leave tomorrow (Sunday) and are scheduled to arrive back into Melbourne at 8:30 Sunday evening. We cannot wait to introduce Liam to his new brother and sisters.

We feel unbelievably blessed and the Lord has been very gracious to us. We praise Him in the good times and the bad. Thank you Lord.

Mike and Cathy
