I...I found your blog through Jessi's blog :)<br />I'm always looking for other families who have adopted from Russia.<br />I can so relate with what you have written and firmly believe that it was only by the grace of God that the sad, sad little girl I met in Vladimir is the happiest, sweetest, most attached little girl in just under a year! On the three different visit trips I made she never once allowed me to hold her without crying and throwing a big fit, she rarely smiled and ran out of the room after the caregivers if they would try to leave her alone with me. And yet, very quickly after we left, she began snuggling with me, hugging me, smiling, giggling and laughing all the time. Anyhow, just had to say I have lived through a very similar situation and have no other explanation...God is good!Kimberlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01072701050744937534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8901942618027196862.post-54615851240882915332012-01-25T14:28:51.661-05:002012-01-25T14:28:51.661-05:00Amazing.

When Vera and I left that orphanage, like Charlie she never looked back. I watch old videos of my first trip and then ones I took days ago and it isn't the same child. I mean she is but she is so much more... You know what I mean :-) and I believe God and love have everything to do with it. Adoption and Vera are the best things I have ever been a part of .... <br /><br />Enjoy the day and all tnose anniversaries to come!
