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!

If you are interested in reading the article Hannibal LaGrange College did on our Adoption experience you can find it at www.hlg.edu click under 'NEWS AND INFO' the last item 'STUDENT NEWSPAPER' and click on 'NOVEMBER 2005' and it in on page #3. (NOTE: you will have to have Adobe to view it; if you don't have it, you can download it for free). There are a few errors, but I felt honored for them to publish it :-)

Very good article. Yes, there were a few mistakes but we find there are mistakes in everyday life too. I make several of those daily!
I could feel the dedication and interest in the article so you know it was written with your families best interest at heart.
Thanks again for sharing!!
