We received our second referral and it's another girl! She is beautiful. She is a little blondie with dark blue eyes. There has been a change of plans and we will not be traveling to Russia this weekend. We are still hoping we might be able to go on December 15, but February is most likely. Now that we are this close, it is hard to wait. We continue to tell Ben about his little sisters, but he is not comprehending. My how his life is about to change!

Ben is doing well. He is speaking more and more. This morning his first words to me were "Jesus loves me". Recently, he has become quite the builder. He does not build to knock down, but rather tries to get his buildings higher and higher.
