December 16 2009 : Maggie Sonia is with us

Its the toughest thing we have ever done.
We are taking our Maggie Sonia away from her care-takers Lebi and Asmina Nayak.

Words can't describe our feelings right now....so here are pictures to share our story.....


Mary , Maggie Sonia and Lebi Nayak








Dr.Smurti Mohanty, social worker and her staff of care-takers. She is responsible for the international adoption process at SMSS.


Mr.Mohanty who is the founder and in-charge of SMSS and the other related institutions.




Maggie Sonia's care-takers Asmina Nayak, Mary and Lebi Nayak











Maggie Sonia and Mary after lots of crying.......



Maggie Sonia and Mom!!! :+)



Our driver Bhopal at the Trident hotel.
He was a godsend for us this week. We couldn't have done this without his help -- his driving skills were Mario Andretti like!



The kids of SMSS














How could I not take her home too....for three day she held on to my legs! She is a 2nd grader that is very smart and does mathematics at a 4th grade level! Just an amazing little girl.
