When he was dropped off, in the classroom, CQ screamed and cried for him. She was so upset that he was leaving her. Poor baby. The second day was much better. She was still slightly sad, but once she found out that Nana was going to take her to McDonalds, she was ALL smiles. 
She really is much more ready for school than Buddah was at 2years, but I have decided to keep her home, with Nana, for 1 more year. Due to some of the attachment issues that we have had, it's just better for her to work on those things for a little while longer. She will have FOREVER to go to school! Here is a very short video of her reading...she gets mad when my sister gets up, she tells her to "sit down, sit down" to listen to her read. It's so funny and cute!Buddah also started his 2nd session of ICE HOCKEY/beginning skating, and he loves it. Here is a very small clip of his 1st skating lesson. He's the one with the CCCP jersey...we got that in Moscow last Dec.
Well, I would share my exciting news if I really knew that it was "a go"...but it's not yet. NO, it's NOT another baby (yet :)), but IT DOES have to do with Russia.
I promise I will let you all know really soon! BUT in the meantime, I would like to ask everyone a few questions. 1. If you had the chance to go to Russia again, to visit, or adopt, would you?
2. How ready/serious are some of you thinking of going to Russia to adopt again?
3. Would it be worth going back to Russia to help other children and/or orphanages as well as learn more about the culture, even if it meant leaving your kiddos at home (with family)for a week or so?
*Just a few thoughts... (big hint too!)

Hmm, I can't see your videos (?) Could be me!
Ok, I have an idea of what your suprise may be, hee hee.
G just started skating lessons!! He is dying to play ice hockey, must be in the genes!! (:-))
He has played on a floor hockey team for a while now. I want to see the videos! I'm sure they are adoble!

I've often thought of going back for a visit with the whole family, but I'd like to wait a few years so they can be old enough to really enjoy it and appreciate it (start saving now!)
I've also thought about mission trips, but I'd want to take at least my oldest 2 kids with me if I ever did something like that so they could experience it too. (My kids are a few years older than yours though).
Do you have an opportunity to travel back to Russia to help with the orphans there?
Are you thinking of adopting again?I think we are done after 4 kids, but if I had 2 I would certainly adopt again.
I would love, love, love to go back... to adopt or just to help out at an orphanage. The experience would be incredible.
BUT, I really want to go back for #2. Someday... someday.
