The concert turned out great. The Brinton girls who performed on the piano (and their mother) were amazing. And the Osmond boys got the crowd going. They sang a wide variety of songs and Morgan and I got to rock out! Loved it. We sang the last song of the chorus to If You Believe. Somehow our family ended up front and center and we never even tried to learn the song. Opps, so we didn't give our best performance : ) But that is our little family hanging out on the stage.
We've decided to go pick them up and adopt them. Yes, we are crazy. We've looked at it from every angle and talked and prayed about it and it's just right. I'm sure it will be hard and crazy at times, but it will be really good too. When we asked them, they were so excited, Ivan was out of his seat and saying yes before the translator could even finish. Our kids gave us the ok, very excited ok, before we even talked to Marina, Ivan and Anya. As we talked more they've been trying to stay together as a family and now they will be able to. I was just giddy taking them to the airport yesterday. Everyone was crying and I was so happy and laughing and I just kept telling them we would see them in a few months. Now we've just got to figure out rooms.

Oh my goodness!!! Congrats Carlin. You are amazing. If anyone can do it..you totally can! I am so happy for you guys. :)
You guys are amazing!!! You are going to get your kids! The time between now and when you actually go to Ukraine is going to make the bond even stronger. Now that you are a few days out, you know exactly what I am talking about.
God bless your family.
I am so excited for you guys. Isabelle is already asking when she gets to meet her new cousins and wanted to know how old they were and their names. We can't wait. Good luck!!!
