A Witness: September 2011
http://awitnesstoaredemption.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
To the Redemption of Polina Faith. Thursday, September 15, 2011. Honestly, I am truly completely in love with Polina Faith. She is such a bundle of life - so full of love and enthusiasm. She is just fun to be around. But also, honestly, she can make me totally crazy. She rarely has gigantic tantrums any more, but she is still all about controlling her environment and getting what she wants. This can be exhausting! I have literally been elbowed out of the way! She LOVES her siblings! Jewels in My Crown.

A Witness: May 2011

To the Redemption of Polina Faith. Tuesday, May 31, 2011. Brad and I rode to the baby house today with Sasha and the Wains as well as our driver. It was quite crowded, but we made it! After a good long wait, the girls were brought to us. The Wain's little girl Dasha just went right over to her parents. Not our Polina! Thankfully the nanny in the picture below was GREAT! The nanny believed this would be an excellent time to slip away. Polina is observant even while concentrating! Got our court date! Just ...

Advocate Mama: July 2011
http://www.advocatemama.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Can one mama change the world? Wednesday, July 13, 2011. By now, anyone who's read this blog knows I have a passion for doing something about children with disabilities in orphanages and institutions. At the institution, your life would be spent in a large room filled with cribs or beds, with other children with disabilities. You were likely mistreated and malnourished. You weren't give much in the way of medical care. You would most likely die young. Both of the pictures below were taken in an instituti...

A Witness: April 2011
http://awitnesstoaredemption.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
To the Redemption of Polina Faith. Thursday, April 28, 2011. We Got a Date! Yesterday I determined to be a faithful homeschool mom - NO answering the phone unless it was Brad! Midway through the morning the phone rang and the caller id showed a Florida number. Sure that it was a sales call, I let it go. Ten minutes later, Brad called. Nancy, my Reece's Rainbow helper, had called him with the big news; we had an appointment in country! Apparently, that Florida number was Nancy! Gabe was so excited! God se...

A Witness: "Mama LOOOOVES Polina"
http://awitnesstoaredemption.blogspot.com/2011/07/mama-looooves-polina.html
To the Redemption of Polina Faith. Wednesday, July 6, 2011. For all those who have worried that my lack of posts mean something is wrong. All is well. My camera got stolen and I am technologically challenged. I just can't bring myself to work on learning a new camera. Plus, Polina is the energizer bunny and I am NOT kidding. She is a busy, busy girl! There is no time to think! July 6, 2011 at 5:12 PM. Dear Mary and family,. What a thrill to see your recent pictures! July 6, 2011 at 5:57 PM. One Thousand ...

A Witness: June 2011
http://awitnesstoaredemption.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
To the Redemption of Polina Faith. Monday, June 27, 2011. I know I haven't posted! I had no internet (not even phone) while in Kiev. Don't even really have time to post now, but thought I would give a quick timeline so you could see that I have a good excuse! Thursday - Marathon appointment at the Embassy - filled with crying, yelling and other less than wonderful behaviors by a bored, tired, little girl. Monday, June 20, 2011. Today my camera disappeared. I am totally bummed and hope that somehow it...
