We get to go to Michigan to host her for 9 days. I am looking forward to it. I hope she likes us. I hope we can learn a little Russian before the 27th. We are going to stop by my father in laws on the way to our visit. It will be harder hosting in a state that I do not know, but I am sure it will work out. It is great that we get this opportunity, it will save us a trip to Russia and quite a bit of money.
I would sure appreciate your prayers during this time. The language issue will make it harder, but we will have some translators available at times.
I just can't wait to meet her. We have decided on an American name for her. At least a first name. It will be Rebekah. We are working on a middle name. Rebekah is a name I have always loved and the lady that has been such a blessing to us during this, is Rebekah. If she decides she like the name, I will start referring to her as Rebekah. Until then, I am told not to use her name.
I am working on all the paper work for the adopting application and the homestudy. We just finalized on our adoption with Sarah last August, but it was through the state and so we have to do an international homestudy. I feel like, "Didn't we just do this?" It is worth it, I do wish there was a way some of it could translate over.
