Hey friends, well we head off to Russia on SUNDAY!!! YAY!!! I know you guys already know this but we are so excited! Please be in prayer for us.

Some specific ways you can pray are:
- For Isaac. He is staying with Keith's mom and will be very well taken care of. But it is still very hard leaving him.
- For safety for us while we travel and while we're in Russia
- For the medicals! This is a huge request! The fact that I have diabetes is a big deal to Russia. Keith and I will have 8 doctor medicals that will probably take about two days. Then they will decide if I am healthy enough to adopt. Please pray for good medical results and favor with the doctors and the Russian staff.
- For sweet S.S. He will find out that we are the ones adopting him. I can't wait to see his reaction! Pray that our time with him is sweet and bonding.
- For the other children at the orphanage. We think it will be difficult for some of the other children because they so badly want a family as well.

Thank you guys for your prayers and support! We love you all and appreciate you so much!

God is good!

  2. Our prayers are with you. After making 6 trips to Russia in the last 5 years, belive me we will re-live every moment along with you. I have my handy dandy Moscow Webcam and Weather.com ready...BTW there is snow on the ground in Moscow right now but the roads a clear! We know this whole thing is a bit scary, but God is in control. Just sit back and enjoy! Jim and Kathleen
