Today is Maks' 3rd Birthday!!



Maks turned 3 today! Chris and Michelle were actually able to bring him a little birthday present from us. Our first present to Maks! We sent a sweatshirt and a little car that when you shake, the tires spin. It goes really far! We hope he likes it. We kinda feel like parents. How weird that the present we picked out and sent made it to Maks. We feel sooooooo thankful. Look at that picture! "Check me out in my addidas!" Michelle says that he liked the gift bag so much when she first gave it to him that he didn't know "it" wasn't the present. He didn't even know to open it. Then he got even more excited when she helped him pull the car out. The best part, she said, was when he put the sweatshirt on. He was so proud. Sigh! They sang "Happy Birthday" to him and then left Ust for Almaty. Michelle said that they have a few more pics that they'll send when they get home.

How lucky! We are excited and hopelessly attached to Maks. His caregivers told him that his Mama and Papa are on their way. So he knows we are coming. : ) We wish we had any idea when we will go. But haven't heard a peep....
