Another great day in Chelyabinsk. Today we took the bus to Katy's orphanage and it was such a good thing to do. The chief doctor greated us and then the caretakers came in to see Valeeva Katya. They all rememeber her and you could just see the love and pride in their faces. At first it was a little intimadating for Katy but then she seemed to loosen up a bit and enjoy the attention. I'm really glad we were able to do that as I didn't realize how important it would be to all of her caregivers.
Other than that we've just been walking the City and been seeing all the great sites. Megan and Angela are keeping me entertained and are a great help with Katy. We'll be here Friday and leaving Saturday to get back to Ekat and then we'll have email again.
10 years later....Happy Metcha Day!

It sounds like you had a great day. That is a wonderful gift that you gave those caregivers- to see Katy again so they can see how much she's grown and changed. Enjoy the rest of your tripl. Keep us posted.

How cool for Katy (and for you!) to have this reunion. Great memory to make.
