Another year of thanks to you for all the help you gave during our 3 trips to Russia in 2007. We met a lot of wonderful people along the way & even got to watch an LSU game in Moscow.

Our boy has been home with us in the U.S. for 7 years today (turned 8 years old last week). He celebrated by playing Xbox One and eating pizza with 2 proud & happy parents.

Who knew that Tigerdroppings would change our lives in such a wonderful way. Thanks for helping a stranger's dreams come true.

Scruffy is skeptical.

This website can't do good things.

Grrrl remembers the day Scruffy said he wasn't as cynical about a topic as he was before. Grrrl knows Scruffy can chill.

Wasn't that today?

Good times. Always fun reminiscing.

Wow, it's been 7 years already!? Time does indeed fly.

I'm so very happy for your family but I'm especially happy for your son. He won the best lottery anyone could ever hope to win. His opportunities growing up an American are unlimted compared to what he would have faced in Russia.

Kudos to you and your husband for sharing your lives and your love with your son.

Please don't thank me. I had such a small part in the process.

Here's to many more happy years for your family!

Congrats! Just remember the teen years don't last forever.

Every part is a huge part. That's why every anniversary, after our son is asleep, I write a thank you note to each person who helped along the way. This is yours and it's heartfelt.
