Preparing for the Next Trip

Yesterday, I talked to our adoption coordinator back here in the states. We apparently made a very good impression on the Russian officials. The next steps are as follows:

• Gather a bunch of additional documents to prove that we aren't criminals, deadbeats, or about to drop dead.
• Send it to Russia.
• Wait to hear our court date.
• Scramble to get travel arrangements and documents, because we again got little notice in advance.
