Kristina Coming Home!

I know it's been WAY too long since I posted and I'm not sure when that will get better.  This is long overdue though so I need to hurry up and get it done before I put my tired eyes to bed.

This was a homecoming we'd all been waiting for since Masha took Kristina back to the orphanage right before we went to Kiev.  We'd had her with us in Dnepro from a couple days after court was over to heading back to Kiev.  A couple weeks, total.  She was such a sweetheart and I loved having her with us.  Sending her back was so very hard since I had no idea if I'd ever see her again.  Miracle after miracle occurred and her hosting family was finally able to go back and get her and her brother.  They arrived on December 4th.  Even though she'd not been feeling well she still gave me a big, long hug. I've missed that girl!  Welcome home!
Coming in from a LONG time traveling.

Best friends, together at last.


I had to get in one too. :)


Everyone at the airport.
