Kyle and Ava Meet Again!

Ava and Kyle in November '07
Ava and Kyle Now



We visited Kyle and his mom Sara this week. Ava and Kyle shared the same room at the baby house in Karaganda. Sara was the one who sent us pictures when we had to leave Ava. It was amazing to find out that they live only 20 minutes from us!!
Ava and Kyle ate lunch, took a walk and played together. Kyle is so cute, crawling and pulling himself up on things. Ava, who is now walking, didn't know what to think of his crawling around. She ended up petting his head when he crawled by! Kyle likes to give kisses, they happen to be kisses with his mouth open though! He tried to give Ava one but she didn't appreciate it. It's a good story for when they're older!

Gosh I marvel at how Ava has grown. I remember seeing those pictures a blink ago when you were back home just waiting to get Ava forever. She is so beautiful and how fun for her to meet up with Kyle. Do you think they recognized each other?

Oh my goodness! We just need to add some Nicholas and some Galena in those photos! That would make a truly nice Group 2 reunion!

I cannot believe how much Ava and Kyle have grown! Oh wait...yes I can! I see it everyday with you know who!

It looks like you guys had a truly awesome day!

How wonderful that she has a 'friend' from Kaz. These photos will make great memories - and perhaps a life-long friendship and link to her roots - for her as she grows up. And they look so cute together!

P.S. We hear that we'll be traveling this month - but alas no LOI yet. But we're getting excited again after an agonizing wait now over 4 months since region assignment.

Did Ava and Kyle recognize each other? We recently had a reunion with the Boykins, and Galena and Nicholas did not seem to remember each other. Ava is so adorable, and has grown so much since we saw her in Room 2.
