Welcome to our family's new blog! As an adoptive mom and a foster mom, I get asked all of the time if this is how I saw my life 15 or 20 years ago. The answer is no. I never thought that I would struggle with infertility, have miscarriages, travel to Russia to meet my children for the first time and care for someone else's child knowing that I would have to return him or her at some point. I never envisioned traveling on this journey but I feel so honored that God has called our family to adopt and to foster and gave us this challenge because He knows that we can handle it. What a privilege to live out James 1:27 which says, "Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world." OK... so we try our best to live out this verse perfectly but because we are sinners, we fall short every day.
I would like to go back to the beginning of our adoption story which began in chilly early months of 2002.....
