2007 Gotcha Day

This is a slideshow video we put together in 2007 to celebrate the Anniversary of our first Gotcha Day. We presented this to about 50 friends in Dalian, China. It is about 35 min long.

"Amazing Grace"

I watch Angelina settle into school this year and I'm so proud of how she always gives her best! I pray for you everyday Honey Bee. Keep up the good work!

I remember my mother's prayers and they have always followed me. They have clung to me all my life.

What's Cooking?

Stop in for breakfast A' la Angelina
Angelina is now cooking french toast and scrambled eggs. She loves to help out in the kitchen and as you can see she cooks up a mean breakfast!

Tiny Dancer

Angelina started a dance class two weeks ago and absolutely loves it. She has a half hour of hip hop and half hour of ballet. It's hard to get pictures during class but I'll try to get some and post them.

Sweet Angelina

Angelina said the sweetest thing to me today. She said " You are the Greatest thing that ever happened to me in my life!" Oh baby girl I love you and hope you know that I feel the same way!!!!!!!

Funny Things That Angelina Will Say On Any Given Day

"Mom, your not allowed to wear those fancy jeans at your age!"

"Why do ladies wear brads?"

"Do these shoes look fancy on me?"

"Mom can I borrow your purse?"

"Why did God make Ass a bad word?"

Together Again

This digital scrapbook generated with Smilebox

~Still just a precious as the day we met them Angelina,Olena & Lyra came together again to celebrate a special sisterhood reunion in the Tennessee Smokey Mountains. With all three families gathering to celebrate the special weekend our good times and laughs were superabundant! As we reflected on memories of years ago we all agreed that our children are a blessing, tailor-made for each family by God himself. As we move forward in life we will continue to count our blessings and share in the joys of our Ukrainian Angels.~
