Long but successful day!

Our day began at 5:00 AM in Moscow and we traveled to the region to meet with the Minister of Education. This meeting went well as she asked us a series of questions about S.S. and our decision to adopt him. After lunch we traveled to the Orphanage to see S.S. and to tell him that we wanted to be his parents. When he saw us he was smiling ear to ear. O' what a happy day! After visiting with him for a few minutes we had to meet with another official who asked us questions for about an hour. She will be speaking on our behalf in the court room. We both feel like this question and answer time went fairly smooth. After the Q & A we spent about an hour and a half visiting with S.S. and playing "get-to-know-you" games. We then said our good-byes and we look forward to meeting with him tomorrow. We got one video which we will try to upload and hopefully we will take some pictures tomorrow. More update in a bit, we're about to go eat. love yall
