Our New Boys


Roman


Dimitri



Hi All!

Sorry it's been awhile since we've posted anything. Life has been very busy! I wanted to let you all know that our Misha was moved to an orphanage that we are not able to access so we are trusting that Jesus will provide Him with parents and a home where Jesus is Lord. This was a very hard loss for us, especially after finding out that Makar (one of our other boys) was adopted out to an Italian family. The Lord knows everything even before it happens so we know this was not a surprise for Him. He is in control.

We are now pursuing the adoption of two other boys along with our third boy, Sasha, who is still waiting for us at the orphanage. The two new boys whose adoptions we are pursuing both have down syndrome. Roman is a high functioning ds child and the Dimitri is a very low functioning ds child who is very ill and needs a miracle from the Lord!

The Lord has been speaking much to our hearts about His love for the orphan. Please join us in praying for our boys, that the Lord would flood them with His life and hope! We'll keep you posted on any new news!

God bless you and thanks for praying!

They are beautiful! Dimitri just melts my heart, he is so beautiful! I will be praying for him that the Lord will work his miracles. I also pray for the rest of your boys and your family, that everything will go smoothly and you will be home very soon.
Amy.........Thank you for the update on your precious children.

Guys, I emailed you awhile back as a mom whose family has experienced losing a daughter born with Spina Bifida. We emailed back and forth a little. I am so happy to see that you guys are there and the wheels are turning! I don't know....there's something about Dimitri's little face that my gut tells me a whole lot of love and stimulation will bring out wonders! Congratulations on your new sons. Looking forward to seeing a whole lot of pics and reading about these additions to your family.

Hey, if you think that you will need someone speaking Russian around the boys for the first few weeks, let me know...I will gladly do what I can to help them assimilate...

Iwka,

Thanks so much for offering to help us with the boys by translating for us! We will take you up on that for sure!

What a blessing! Thanks!
