Today Marianna flies to Ukraine to get our son Martiros who has been visiting grandmother, aunts, uncles, and cousins for most of the summer. His language skills have improved quite a bit and he is again comfortable speaking in Russian. In regards to the zombie-like expression on my pancake son’s face, please remember that it’s around 25 hours of continuous travel to make this journey. I didn’t show Marianna, who will be much more dazed from doing this trip twice in the same week.
