Some pictures from Sasha's first couple days at home. As you will see Dudley is never far behind her. Sally is keeping more distance but is also doing really well with Sasha.

We were assigned to the Krasnodar Region in Russia. Krasnodar was originally named Ekaterinodar after Catherine the great which meant "Catherine's Gift". After the Russian revolution in 1917 the name was changed to Krasnodar which means "beautiful gift". I found this to be a sweet reminder and quite encouraging. Sasha is a beautiful gift that God created in His own image. A child He created knowing that we would be her parents.
If you want to keep up with us even more look us up on Facebook, too.
Our Prayer Requests
1. For Papa and Sasha as we continue to transition into life without momma.
2. Papa and Sasha will be traveling to see Grandpa & Grandma Carr this December
3. Having trouble getting Russia to accept our first post adoption placement report. They have gone to an extreme with follow up add on reports after they found out Jenny passed away. It is very frustrating and painful to have to keep hashing out the month of September...
Praises:
1. Sasha is grieving well
2. Her second MRI results and followup Dr. visit were great. no more follow up MRIs for a few years.
