The Ukrainian Babushka

Three years ago today, we met the only connection we have to William's past. A kind and loving woman, William's babushka. We are so incredibly thankful for the role that this sweet lady has played in William's life.

You can read about that day HERE. Read about the events leading up to the meeting HERE.

Neat story; I read the older posts. We were told no one came to visit our son in his orphanage. However, he remembers some family. He talks about a brother belonging to a different man in his mother's life. He talks about all the mean dads who used to hang around. He's talked loads about his mother. And, he's talked about grandparents. He says he remembers three grandmothers and one mean grandpa. I think I'm glad we didn't meet any of them, and I think our son's happy to be done with them. Still, wish we had some childhood pictures. He's supposed to be writing a third-grade biography now, too.
