XXXX is a beautiful 11 year old girl from Russia. We have been told that she has learning disabilities and there is a good chance she has Fetal Alcohol Syndrome. She came to the United States to be hosted. We first heard about her from an email that was sent to a friend that she then forwarded to us. She was one of the four children that did not have a home. When I saw her picture, I knew there was something there.
I had to get more information. I talked with the contact person and the more I found out, the more I knew she was to be our daughter. I spoke with my husband and he was not convinced yet. We went to a meeting about Russian adoption, which actually scared me to death. I was overwhelmed and was having second thoughts. My husband however, after much prayer, knew it was meant to be. God worked on my heart a little more and I knew as well. I know this will be so much work to find the money to get her here, but I have faith that God will provide all we need and I will work to the best of my ability to make it happen.
So, we started a web page:

And now I am starting this blog. This is my first blog. I hope to chronicle our process to bringing her home.
