More on the Brothers

Since posting the pics of William and Sasha, I’ve gotten a few questions...

While in Ukraine, we found out that William had a brother who was adopted December 2005 (William wasn’t available for adoption then). It took some digging to find her, but once we did we began calling and emailing on a regular basis. In fact, you may recall THIS POST where we had received pictures of William at 3 ½ year old – Sasha’s mom took those pictures when she was adopting Sasha!

Sasha is 4 years old – they're 19 months apart. They have the same nose and mouth, and the same eye color. There are other similarities, but Sasha is definitely the outgoing and uninhibited one, while William remains our laid-back, giggly little home-body!

We're happy that we were able to find Sasha & his mom. We look forward to giving the boys more opportunities to build a relationship as they grow up.

Thanks for telling the story. How wonderful and amazing William has a brother in the states that he can grow up knowing. A precious blessing! Hope you all are well and have a great weekend!!!
