Welcome to our adoption story, which officially begins when we jet off to the Ukraine to meet our daughter, Elizabeth Marie, on Oct. 15th 2005. We hope to keep our family and friends up to date with our daily activities through this blog (stands for web log). We are very blessed to have wonderful support systems...our loving family, friends, and our church family. We want to thank everyone for their prayers and concerns since we began this process in August, 2004 and as we continue our journey.
Five Years Later...
We started this blog when we went to the Ukraine to adopt our daughter Elizabeth in 2005. Five years later we are loving life with our daughter (now 6) and our son, Chris (23). Tom continues to farm and I have the wonderful job of a stay-at-home mother and farm-wife. God has truly blessed us with two wonderful kids, a great new home, all while being surrounded by a terrific family, friends, and church family!

Elizabeth wearing the Care Bear slippers that neighbors Lora, Bobby, & Katie Pfanner. She loves them! She also loves the glow-worm that you got for her and it has helped with nap time :-) Thanks so much you guys!!!

Tom, Valerie, Chris & Elizabeth,
So glad the sleepers fit. Katie was very concerned that she picked out the wrong size. They look cute on her. When Katie was about Elizabeth's age, she had a glow worm and took it with her everywhere she went. She slept with it every night. Katie and I thought Elizabeth needed one of those new style ones that plays a lullaby. Hope she enjoys both.
