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.

Update and Pics

Sasha continues to adjust to having a family life.  It seems each day we learn more about her and how she is coping and how she best responds to us.  What a learning experience this is.  While we are still trying to figure out what our new normal is going to be we are making progress.  I've included a few pictures:  (1.) The three kiddos (2) Sasha's dance move (3) Sasha and Sally (4) Sasha showing some "attitude"
