So, after a year-plus of blogging about orphans, it’s our
turn to start our very own Adoption Blog!
A little background… we are the parents of two beautiful
daughters- our youngest came home from Ukraine in 2001, when she was 4 years
old. For about ten years, I gave
adoption just a passing thought, and then I started to feel nostalgic. Not too long after the nostalgia, the desire
to adopt again hit me! My husband didn't think we were meant to do it again, so
I prayed and waited and advocated and, occasionally, dreamed.
Fast-forward a year. Just before Mother’s Day, I was
powerfully hit by the desire to adopt… it seemed so real and exciting. I
actually felt tingly. I didn't get a chance to talk to husband that night, but
when I did, with a casual “although I know you're not interested kind of remark", he said, “Oh, I wouldn't be so sure of that.”
Turns out, he, too, was feeling the call, seeing the signs; however you word it, it was real and it was powerful for him, too.
So, mid-May we began this journey. We’re going to Russia
this time.
Welcome! We’re honored to have
you share in it.
