What a day!

Today was very special for us. First of all, Buddy was able to take the kids to school, which they thought was awesome. Then, Buddy, Caleb and I drove 2 hours to get our fingerprints done! Amazing that it only took 20 minutes from entering the building to leaving to finish it up. I was really expecting the whole ink thing, but they made us wash with something that smelled like oranges, put on Corn Huskers lotion (anyone else remember that?) and then it was computerized. Where have I been? They hadn't had anyone else adopting from ROG come in before, so that was kind of cool. Then rush home to get the kids from Amanda's (thanks a million A!) and get ready for our guest.

This is Anna and she's from Georgia! A live person to help us muddle through the wonders of learning a new language. She was so kind and willing to help. It was funny, though to hear her rattle things off in a second that took Buddy and I 5 seconds to painfully butcher. We really appreciated the time she took to share her country, her life and the yummy dessert! We look forward to many more times together. God sent us someone who is a sister in the Lord, enjoys the same ministries we do, has a heart for orphans, and who facinated Caleb! God's so good!
