Hi! We're Tom and Michele and we've decided to document our adoption journey. This is such an exciting and scary time for us as we make our way to being parents.

Tom and I now feel that we are being led to adopt from Russia. The journey has begun! We received the paperwork from INS in the mail, which we will fill out and return when we get back from California. We need to decide on an agency. There are so many considerations!

I hope to record all of our bumps and turns as we take this exciting journey to becoming a family.

To our child to be: I knew I loved you, before I met you.
