Our Sweet Kolya

Today we met our son for the first time. He was as cute as a button. We went out for lunch with him and to the store. He was very interested in pushing the cart for us and wanted to carry our bags as well. We spoke with him through our interpreter. He was very happy to tell us his favorite foods and sports, he was not shy at all. He can say basic words in English such as naming all the fruits that were on the menu. We showed him pictures of his new sisters and he was happy about that. He has no idea how many relatives he will really have!

We asked him if he wanted to come to America with us and he said yes. Our missionary friend we are staying with says he looks like his new papa! The pictures we posted are of Susie and Kolya at lunch and Kyle and Kolya at a table outside of McDonald's trying to get Kolya's remote control car to work. Susie finally had to step in and get the thing working!
