Another Good Day

The kids had their physicals for the court paperwork.  Giggles was running a slight temperature and GameBoy had a runny nose, but otherwise all seems to be well.  Cliff and Zhenia went to the city where the kids were born to get the court paper fixed.  They had about a 2 hour drive one way.  Talked briefly to Cliff and it appears all is well there.  Waiting for him to get back to get a full report.

The girls and I went to visit the kids.  GameBoy was a bit disappointed that Cliff wasn't with us.  He really enjoys his attention.  We brought an R/C car with us, but apparently the battery didn't charge properly.  So we didn't have much to do.  Happily, though, we managed.

There's another American couple there adopting 2 boys (10 and 7), so we talked a bit while playing with our kids.  And the boys played together.  They had a puzzle and this magnetic building set (can't remember what its called).  Giggles and their youngest are in the same groupa and are good buds.  We exchanged email addresses to keep in touch.  The mom has a video of Giggles and their son dancing together in the Valentine's Day celebration, and she said she will send it to me.

I could tell that Giggles didn't feel well.  She didn't make an entrance when she came in, and she didn't jump into my lap as usual.  No camera, and no silliness.  Then she said she wasn't hungry.  What?  Is this the same little girl?  Eventually she did accept a juice box, and she took her banana for later.  She tried a Twix bar but gave it back.  The nurse came and took her back to the clinic for a while.  Not sure what went on there.  Feels weird that my child - who is not yet legally my child - is receiving medical care and I don't know what's going on.  Did that make sense?

Update:  Cliff says all went well with fixing the court document.  Yes!
