Our Intentions

I think our original intentions in creating this blog was to document our adoption journey from when we first signed on with an agency and lasting all the way through until we returned home with our boys. The idea served several purposes;

First, it allows us an opportunity sometime down the road to one day take a look back, reflect and reminisce.

Second, it allowed friends and family members to stay apprised of what was going on and to follow us in our travels half-way across the world.

Finally, we hope other couples traveling similar paths can find some useful information here. It isn't a step-by-step guide on adoption but rather just musings that hopefully gives a glimpse of what they may expect along their own journey.

We weren't necessarily intending on keeping it updated once we returned home from Russia with our boys. Having said that, it's really kind of a neat way to still keep friends and family informed. Particularly those who live further away or maybe those whom we don't see quite as often as we should.

So from time to time, we hope to post pictures, news and other happenings in our lives. We'll begin with a cute picture of Sergei & Roman on the swing in the backyard. They really love the outdoors so far. Of course, winter hasn't arrived just yet.
