Guess Who!


The moral of this story is photograph children BEFORE they are tired and ready to go home. Does anyone recognize the handsome little man on the left? Avid Uzbek blog readers might recognize the famous Cole of Uzbek adoption fame. The boys and I had lunch with Julia and her new son, Cole. I had delusions of discussing the finer inner workings of travel to Uzbekistan, bonding with your new child and conquering the language barrier. Instead, we took turns running back and forth to the buffet line, restrooms and napkin dispenser! Such is the life of moms.

I must say that Cole is a handsome young gentleman. He loves his mommy a LOT and his smile is even more infectious in person. My glass was once again half full after meeting in person a family created by an adoption from Uzbekistan!

So, how is it to have 4 kids, even if it is only for lunch?

I really hope, you can travel in February to see your little girl and bring her home. She will have a wonderful one in your house.

How wonderful that you and Julia were able to get together with your children............soon you'll have your daughter with you and it will be a big party with four boys + 1 sweet girl!
