Here is Julia, nine years old. This is the very first picture of Julia that we got. She's in mid air from jumping with her jump rope.

From June 16 - July 6, I was in Ukraine with my family for an adoption of a little girl, Julia. The trip was a great experience for all of us. My mom, sister Brooke, and I came back home together on July 6 leaving my dad over there for two more weeks to finalize everything before bringing Julia home.
