Something I wanted to share a long time..

Do you remember my post back in February adopt us... please ? During our first trip to Ukraine we had opportunity to visit one orphanage. This is the orphanage where our two last kids came from. A little boy who asked to adopt him and his brother, was our Stasik. We couldnt' just leave them there, we did come back to adopt them. 

a little story how we found out about boys:
We had our SDA appointment scheduled for 1-24-12, and in the beginning of January, when we were getting ready to travel I decided to contact a friend in Ukraine, and ask if she knows any child/ren available for adoption, and wanted to be adopted. In few hours my e-mail was send, I received e-mail from my friend with info about two boys, and their pictures. We prayed, and when we were ready to go to Ukraine, in our hearts we had a decision to adopt Danik and Stasik if everything goes well, and at SDA we did ask to see their file. Unfortunately we didn't' have enough time to do research and find out more information about boys, and if they were available for international adoption.  At the time, in January they were not available for international adoption. We had to come back home with no kids, but we had opportunity to visit our kids at the orphanage, and when we saw them we knew exactly why we were there.

Our boys become available for adoption in late March, and we were back to Ukraine to adopt them. We had many prayers, stressful, sleepless nights, and finally we are all home!

**** We have few pictures from our first trip to Ukraine with all the boys and kids together. I will try to find it and post it when I have time.

  3. Hi there. Your situation sounds a little like what has recently developed in our adoption. It's funny you should make this post today. We met a boy at the orphanage our 1st son was adopted from. We are just wondering if he will be afraid to come with us because of what happened with our first son. We need many prayers.
    Thank you for this post, with your happy ending. :)
