Mission Accomplished!
Court proceedings went well today, and we are officially Mia's parents!
(Well, OK, there's still the 2 week "waiting period" in which we have a chance to change our minds...)
We'll probably write more soon, but for now here's a picture of all of us (Sveta is behind the camera) after the proceedings were complete. From left to right, the people are: Shaizada (she works with the "Sisters" law firm and handles paperwork), Linda, Tucker, Me, the pediatrician at the baby house (who said a lot of nice things about us, speaking on our behalf during the proceedings), the Judge, and an official from the ministry of education (who also said nice things about us since she was at the 60th anniversary celebration and saw us there).

To the Four Frankes:
Congratulations!
Tucker seems like he is a great big brother.
Have a great day!

Yippee!
Your facial expressions (all 3) say it all!
Congratulations on having Bacha join your family!
I like that little girl's "spunk"!
Will they have a "goodbye ritual" for Bacha at the baby house?
Will Sveta, the interpreter still be involved or are you "on your own" now?

P.S. Tucker sure has been navigating all this pretty well. He is so tender with Mia and seem to enjoy "showing her the ropes".
What an imagination he has! Hope you don't run out of "Luke Skywalker" stories!!
