"A child's life doesn't begin at adoption, and neither should his adoption story. This charming, delightful narrative of a Russian adoption contrasts a child's life before and after adoption in ways that are respectful and insightful, explanatory and celebratory. From the first page: When I first met you, you lived in Russia, a country far across the ocean. Now, you live here, close to my heart, to the last: You will always be Russia's child. But now, you are also mine, When I Met You carefully balances memories of Russia with new experiences in America, celebrating both." --Review from Adoptive Families Magazine
