We’re home! We pulled in our driveway at about 11:00 p.m. on Sunday. It felt so good to sleep in our own beds and wake up to taking a shower in our own shower! Our flights were all on time and pretty smooth rides. On the flight from Moscow to Chicago, we did have a group of loud, rowdy, drunk individuals who were causing a bit of raucous for the flight attendants. Once we landed, one of them was personally escorted off by Customs Officials. He didn’t have to wait in the long lines of Passport Control and Customs, but I’m guessing those lines were much more pleasant than where he went! I guess it all just added to the adventure of the flight!
I was not really affected by the time difference or jetlag. I bounced right back into returning everything to order from being away for ten days. Now, Greg is another story. He has really had a difficult time. He has not been feeling well since Saturday, so has not had a chance to recuperate from the lack of sleep. Each day he feels a little better though!
I can’t even explain how much we miss our little girl! There’s not even a moment that she’s not in my thoughts. I wonder what she’s doing, what she’s eating, who’s holding her, who’s playing with her… I made a slide show of all the photos that we took of her and I keep playing it over and over again! It helps, but it’s certainly not the same as being there. Each day that goes by, I just remember that it’s one less day until we can be back in Astrakhan to bring her home forever.
I’m heading off to the store to get some supplies to make our photo album for Court. I’ve never done much scrapbooking, but I think this will be fun!

Glad you are home safe and the countdown to a court date can begin! Just a word of advice. We made an album for the judge which she looked at and loved (different region) but then she asked for loose photos for the court file because otherwise they get too thick. I didn't know this but thankfully had some loose photos in a file that I had carried in to court. You may want to have some just in case unless you make an album that you can pull the pictures out of. Have fun!!
Welcome home. Can't wait to see you and hear all the stories of your trip, and view the slide show. Glad your flights home were mostly uneventful, at least your weren't bored. :)
We enjoyed reading your posts during the trip. Glad you made it back safe and sound. Blessings as you wait to go back. Hopefully it will not be long. Our prayers are with you!
