Working on: Just put Roman down for night-night, drinking a glass of wine.
---------------------------------

I had such a vivid dream this morning, it almost feels like I didn't sleep because I was so involved with it. The details were incredible. I found myself in an airport, flying to Russia by myself. When I landed, I met up with a coordinator who drove me to an office for an adoption agency. The person in charge was Miss Pat (the director of Roman's daycare). They proceeded to tell me about a 2-year-old girl who was available for adoption. My mind thought, "this is a little bit older than what we wanted, but if it's in the same region as Roman came from, we might accept it." This is where the details kicked in - the people speaking in Russian, my thinking, the details of this mystery orphan's background... thick in details.

Anyway, so then I took a flight to the region, which was not Roman's region but nearby. In my dream I even had an actual region - Pskov. It's in SW Russia. I landed, and was driven to the orphanage to meet the girl. She was a blonde, somewhat shy. I remember wanting to have someone translate a conversation for us. But the caretakers were really pushing this girl on me, to the point that they said if I called Doug and got an American physician to agree that she was healthy enough to adopt, we could get a court date in just a few days - as soon as Doug could fly over.

I thought in my dream, "this is going really fast and I need to talk with Doug about this age thing. Roman's only two - do we want to bring in a child who is his age?" I was just trying to tell a caretaker in broken Russian and crude sign language that I wanted a phone to call Doug, when Doug woke me up by talking to Roman.

So we're talking DETAILED. Which makes me wonder - was this just a dream processing thoughts I've had in my head, or God trying to tell us something?
