If I am emotional right now I can't imagine how you must be!! Probably those same happy tears I cry each time I give birth. To finally have this become a reality, to know that God had this moment planned from the beginning of time...all so overwhelming. It is a humbling feeling to know that God chose you to be someone's mom. It will be a wonderful roller coaster ride! I know you and Chris love thrill rides... this is the thrill ride of a lifetime! I am praying for God to knit you all together as only He can. All of your tomorrows must look twice as bright now with two little ones to share your love. Enjoy it all! Can't wait to see the pictures!

We were looking up Krasnoyarsk on the internet and we all agreed that it looked beautiful! However all of the pictures were clearly taken in the Spring/Summer months! They mentioned it was a pretty city to walk around in, but I am thinking that in this weather you couldn't walk too far without FREEZING!!! I am praying that your days are filled with memory making moments! You and Chris only have ten days left alone and while having the boys with you will be amazing, there will always be something sweet about being alone with the love of your life. Enjoy your final days as a couple and do something fun!! We thought Prospekt Mira street looked like fun! Let us know some of the fun touristy things you do! Just in case we ever vacation in Siberia :) lol!!! We're praying that God continue to overwhelm you with blessings!!
