Signs of St. Pete
Keith and I had been snapping some miscellaneous photos around St. Pete, planning to blog them “later.” Hopefully – there’s not much “later” here in St. Pete. So here goes.
None of the license plates we saw contained Cyrillic letters, only letters also found in the Western alphabet. We theorize it’s because of international traffic laws – it’d be hard to issue an APB on “K 722 squiggle hook thingy A.”
Owned by Checkans?

Remember, Rachel says we’re pathetic history nerds, so we were fascinated by this tidbit.
Finally – Keith is all about the voluptuous – ummm – art work. Yes, that’s it, art work.

I’m Yippee! Everybody do the WAIVE!
The four couples ahead of us in court did not have their 10 days waived. We did! The judge took into account (1) Guanna’s medical needs and (2) Guanna’s educational needs (i.e.,getting registered in and ready for NEISD.) We weren’t really sure what she decreed, even after it was translated. We had to wait until our advisor here told us what the decree meant. We were weak with relief.
Of course, we know the real reason our wait was waived. God is good. He answers prayer.
Our Buckner representatives here are so well-organized and so well-connected – we’re talking about leaving St. Pete for Moscow late tomorrow night! We already have our adoption certificate, and Guanna’s new birth certificate showing us as parents. That took time, hence, why da blog is running so late.
We’re taking a train to Moscow. We have much to do w/the American Embassy. But we should be home next week.
Please – friends and family – meet JULIA GUANNA WOODWORTH, dob 2/1/00, adopted 5/10/06 in St. Petersburg, Russia:
Three Woodworths Here in St. Pete – Three in San Antonio Anxiously Waiting
Mmmm….I’m thinking this beats “soup with bits of meat.”
Tomorrow – we party with her friends at Children’s Home #47 at 11 a.m. Then we begin the journey home. And the real adventure begins!
Thank you for your prayer support these last few weeks. And special thanks to everyone who’s been behind us the last 22 months.
I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you. John 14:18
