THEN......AND NOW!!!!!

Anastasia's back from Russia!! Back in June, 2009, she was here with her family from Moscow. She was such a cute little thing. Sh was 12 years old then. Below is a picture of her drawing a picture for us.

Also in June she showed us on a map where she lives. The young guy with her shows where he came from with his family!

When the St. Petersburg group arrived yesterday we saw her and her parents right away. How fun to have them back! We could tell how much taller she had gotten. She had a cute little haircut and seemed a little less shy! She is growing up before our very eyes! We found out that today was her birthday.....13 years old she is! We just had to give her a little gift. She was so pleased.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ANASTASIA!! :-)
