  5. My Tummy Mummy • All babies grow in a special place in a mummy’s tummy. • I didn’t grow in my mom’s tummy. I grew in another lady named Marina. She helped make me. • She probably has very blond hair and blue eyes, just like me. • She is probably very pretty and that’s why my mom calls me “Beautiful Boy.”

  6. All About Logan • I like to sing songs and dance and play the piano and drums. • Marina has special training in music. • I got my love of music from her.

  7. She was probably happy when I was born, because everyone loves little babies. • She probably fed me and changed my dirty diapers and smiled at me, but she had some grown up problems. • It is a lot of work to take care of a little baby. She was worried about how she was going to take care of me.

  9. This is a picture of Dr. Elizaveta. She was in charge of taking care of me at the Baby Home. • I got lots of hugs and kisses from all the ladies there, just like Mrs. Ria, and Mrs. Laura and Ms. Marcie at my school at home!!! • This is a picture of the outside of the Baby Home.

  10. The ladies fed me, took me for walks, played with me, sang songs and changed my poopy diapers. • I lived at the Baby Home until my Forever Mom and Dad could come to Russia.

  11. Meeting Mom and Dad!! • When I was almost 2, I saw my mom and dad for the first time!! • I was a little shy and scared at first. • My mom and dad smiled a lot and cried because they were so happy to meet me!!

  12. I couldn’t understand what they were saying because I only knew Russian words. • I sat and played with the toys they brought me. • I liked the bubbles and the cars.
