This is the first Journal I have done on the internet.

4/18/2006 11:32 AM Hello everyone, This is the first Journal for us to do with the adoption. We hope everyone will enjoy this about our journay with the adoption. This is the 2nd adoption for us . We adopted a little boy from Russia back in 2003. His name is Nicholas. I wished now that we had done a Journal for him like this,so that our family could have kept up with us while we were in Russia. Nicholas is 3 years old now. Chris and I thought about trying to adopt again. We decided to go with Ukraine this time. We flet like God was calling us to adopt a child from Ukraine. My sister told us about this group long time before the first adoption. Chris and I talked about it after a while and Nicholas was moving toward age 3. We went to some of the meetings to see what it was all about. Then we talked to two ladies that were helping with the adoption and we meet with them. Around 2004 we started on the paper work. We had some up and down with this adoption. Like most adoption you do have some trouble. Back in Aug. 2004 my mom passed away. Chris and I stopped the paperwork for about six months. Then started back again.
