Welcome to our family blog!

On November of 2009, we traveled to Ukraine to adopt our daughter, Nina. This blog chronicles the time from when we committed to her, to a year after she was home.

Nina has Cerebral Palsy, and like most orphans with special needs in eastern Europe, she would have been transferred to a mental institution between the age of 4-5. She has been a blessing in our lives!

I'd love to hear from you, if you need someone to talk to please click on the contact link below.

We are still waiting for a flight. Airport is still closed and now our flight is scheduled to leave at 6:00 pm (10:00 am central your time)

Keep us in your prayers.
