"The brilliant sunshine and light snow cover give a fairy-tale sparkle to this imperial city as the blue van pulls up to Baby House Number One. Karen and David Darr of Flower Mound, Texas, step out. A worker from the orphanage greets them and takes them into a waiting room. They pace the floor. That morning, a judge had ruled they could adopt Fyodor X, a 7-month-old boy relinquished at birth.
