Good Morning,

Nothing much to report. The big news on our mind is the Russian Legislature called the "Duma" is meeting again tomorrow. Unlike our congress, which generally meets at least 2 to 3 times a week while in session, the Duma is more random. There is always the possibility they will put adoptions on hiatus.

Also, there is renewed interest by all the Oblasts (read: counties) in Russia to make mandatory the 8 doctor physical exam done in Russia before adopting. I am not a fan of this, but hopefully it will not come to pass and become required.

Till next time.
