Too tired for a long post. We had a great time with Lera today, she laughed and played with us for a couple of hours. We discovered she is extremely ticklish...hahahaha! She gave us hugs and kisses goodbye, which was a big breakthrough...the last couple times were stressful for her, but today she was happy, we can't wait until tomorrow!!

The director said that perhaps tommorrow we will be able to photograph Timur, Ellen and Slava. We are planning to stay longer just in case we can get the opportunity.

Oh Sheila, I'm so glad things are going well for you. People will think you have twins, won't they? Do you know about your court date yet?

Great news and so good to see Lera laughing and smiling for you!!! It's just a matter of time, this is a good sign that she is not superficially attaching too quickly. I hope you DO get to take new photos of Timur, Slava and Ellen too! Love these kids!
