Watching Nina

Wow! 2 posts in one day...I guess it's a good way to get back in the swing of things. This post is mostly for Ellen. Today Clayton had the idea to let Oksana watch video of Nina that Ellen had posted on their blog. I thought it was a great idea since we are going to Skype with them soon and I didn't want her to be shocked that she speaks English now. She loved seeing Nina! We had to watch it over and over and over again. This is what she would do while watching her:

Well...Nina's mommy smiled just as big watching Oksana watching Nina. That was too sweet! I wonder what they will think when they see each other!
I am very curious how they will interact!
And I cannot wait to show Nina this video tomorrow morning!

Ellie says, "Can't we just skype with Oksana and talk to her instead of watching her videos over and over?"

How amazing and wonderful that these two little girls can maintain contact! Can you imagine what this may mean to them as they grow older?
Many of us have siblings who shared our upbringing, and with whom we share a bond that just can't be replaced, and with whom we can process a lot of our past issues. For Oksana and Nina to have each other, who shared their "beginnings" is invaluable!
