Yuri has been freed!

(Laura)
Happy DAy! Yuri is sittingon my lap as I type this! Yep he has been freed from orphanage life for good! We are going to go take him to meet his youngest brother in about an hour. That should be really exciting. He ate at his first restaurant today and we have alreadyhad ice cream and he is now listening to Klove as I type. I'm starting him right away on hearing from teh Lord. He are a few shots of todays events. Enjyo Papa. Wish you were here.
Short post no corrections. Very busy but extrememly happy!
Mama and Yuri :)

Laura,

Praying for you and Babushka to have the strength and grace to get through the next few days. You'll be home before you know it. God will supernaturally give you everything you need. Remember if He calls you, He equips you!
Anxiously awaiting to see the boys!

Laura and Babushka,
Praise the Lord! We will continue to pray that all goes smoothly as you are busily gathering your documents to make your way back to the good 'ole USA! We will also start praying for travelling mercies for all as you travel. Welcome to the family, Vanya, Yuri and Victor! Much love, Cousins Colleen, Joe, Alex and Emma Grace.
