Finally....an update

We were having some techincal difficulties with the blog and then I just could never get a chance to get back on. Things are going so well around here. We are settled into our routine and Rosie is doing wonderfully. Homeschool is going well though the boys are still struggling now and again to keep focused and keep the routine going. But, I guess that is normal.

Rosie has developed some interesting likes and dislikes and we can really see her personality blossoming. She keeps us laughing and can be a bit of a clown sometimes, much to the endless delight of her brothers. She is doing much, much better with the dogs although she still doesn't care for it when they start barking right in her ear -- go figure.

We have some amazing news. Robert is traveling to Russia the first week of April to go see Anastasia. Since it has been so long since we saw her last, they are insisting that we "view" her before going for the final court date. Robert will be there about a week or so doing the preliminary paperwork and getting some short visits with Anastasia. Our agency thinks we should go back for our court date around the end of June. Our lives our changing so fast now and we are so grateful that the transition with Rosie has been such an easy one. We are quite sure that it won't be so easy for Anastasia. We are really excited about bringing her home and I'm going to get started fixing her room up right away. Yippee.

We are counting our blessings everyday.
