The Russell family's journey to their new family member
Thursday, September 27, 2007
Here's Sam! We got a phonecall yesterday with our referral of this precious little boy. We're so excited. He'll be 2 in January and we hope we'll get him home around then. Welcome to our hearts, little guy!
We are so excited for your family. Sam is adorable. We can't wait to meet him. Ruby is going to love her new friend. We love the blog too and being able to keep up with the excitement of this process. Darren wonders what Sam will want to eat at El Parian? Does this mean you can say you're in the last trimester now?
Shelly, this is SO EXCITING!!! Tricia and I told you that there would be good news soon and it looks like we were right. Congratulations! He looks like a fun little fella. I look forward to seeing more photos and reading about your wait to travel.
Congrats to you all--he is precious! Ben is very excited that another boy is coming into the circle of friends! He said he will teach him to call the Hogs!
Our hearts have been captured! What a precious little man--and I think he's got the "look" down that will melt you on the spot! We look forward to meeting you, Sam! Jen and Martin
