    Woot!

    Definitely a Thanksgiving with some added thanks this year. All my best thoughts and wishes go out to you and your new "instant family". I've (we've) been on pins and needles waiting to hear the final (and successful) outcome on the adoption, and indeed it seems to have happened very smoothly. Thanks for sharing this personal jouirney with all the rest of us...it's been very heartwarmimg.

    And thanks for the pic. Two very beautiful girls have now found a mommy and daddy. (Watch that Anastasiya though, she looks like trouble. )

    - Vaughn

    And the words we have been waiting to say!

    Congrats to the entire Becker family. As we enter this most wonderful time of the year I know that the glorious feelings you have today will be magnified a million times over the years.

    From Ed, Betsy and our family.

    Better to keep silent and be thought a fool, then to open your mouth and remove all doubt.

    Wonderful experience for all of you I'm sure. Congratulations are definately in order for your family. Have a safe trip back home. You are to be admired for having such a big heart as to adopt these children. I hope they bless you and your family for the rest of your lives.
    Just keep working on it. It'll give up and do right after a while.

    Congratulations guys. It's been a long and tiring road I guess, but the results are obviously worth it.
    There's one in every crowd......and it's usually me!
