Шло время, мы давным давно вернулись домой, и жизнь вошла в свою колею..
За новыми впечатлениями и событиями как то забылась та встреча. Но вдруг я, разбирая фотографии, обнаружила две фотографии.. и написала им письмо. Небольшое, несколько фраз... просто спросила, как у них дела? Забрали ли они ребенка? Ну и как жизнь вообще?
А сегодня получила ответ..

Hi Elena! First let me say sorry this is very late in responding. As a new Mom with a very active toddler (and a move that was not planned), I had a lot of adjusting!!! But we are having fun and everyone is healthy and happy! Yuri is such an angle and sweet little boy. Well, he's not so little anymore. He has grown leaps and bounds! I cannot keep up with the clothes... His language is great, says lots of words, and enjoys reading books. I decided not to return to work and (to my surprise) I'm having a great time. We were moved (not planned) at the end of last summer to Ketchikan, Alaska - just south of Kodiak - part of the inside passage. Adjusting to Ketchikan took some time because all my friends were in Kodiak. More surprises... we are adopting a little girl from Khabarovsk. Yuri has changed our lives and added joy, laughter, tears, hugs, snuggles and lots of love, so we knew at some point a sister or brother would join our family. Please tell your boys hello from Yuri and us. All of you were very nice to us and made us feel like a family. I still have the books they gave us and keep it safe in a special place with all of the things from Russia and people that we met in Russia! I have those cards that I promised (I have not forgotten!!!!!!) and I would love to send them the cards from here, and a pic of Yuri. I hope Yuri enjoys playing cards as your boys! So please send your address!
Thanks again for your message. It was great to hear from you! Here is our address in Ketchikan
