  4. So happy the papers are signed!!! They look so beautiful, you can tell they are a perfect fit for your family. I can't believe Emma has a complete AV canal and is five years old!!! Just think about the potential she has once her heart is fixed!!

  9. God is truly awesome!!! Thank you for sharing your journey. We have had one successful adoption 15 months ago and are in the midst of seeking God's will to adopt one more little one for our daughter to grow up with. Your journey gives us hope and renewed inspiration in knowing that no matter what His answer is for us it will be the right answer.

    Thank you, and enjoy those precious babies.

  14. Emma and Micah are gorgeous!!! So glad they are alive, registered and waiting for you! Joel had the AV Canal surgery at 4 months and the the surgeon was able to "form" a mitral valve at that time, it worked until he was 4 years and then the surgeon placed an artificial valve. I hope she doesn't need an artificial valve but just know that if she does, they can do it!! Joel became "a real boy" after that, with much more energy-- you know how heart surgery helped Brianna.
    It's great they are giving you the go-ahead!!! So happy for you all!
    Love,

  15. Wow, Emma is so strong on her chest, I am shocked, she is going to rock your world once home, you won't be able to stop that little munchkie and geez Micha looks just like her, it is like they are little mini-me's of you guys, you couldn't of had more bio looking children via adoption if you tried harder. They are just meant to be your babies, everyone has posted that but it is just so TRUE!!! Here is hoping court is next week!!

  17. Love the pictures and thanks for sharing the food photos and smiles too. Sounds like once again God had the time table set just right. Glad the papers are in process. Moved toddle bed out today and put out 6-9 month clothes for Micah. The 12s are nearby as I think he'll grow fast. I have 2Ts out for Emma but will adjust that as you say. Happy tears here. Can't wait to see all four of you. Love Mom

  23. Praise God for signed paperwork and for all the wondeful bonding time you're able to have with you little ones! Daria's smile is amazing! She really looked like she loved the ball pit. And Daniil's fish face was so cute. He has such beautiful big eyes. Poor little guy though- you have to get him home where he can wear boy clothes!

  27. I loved your pictures! I shared them with a co-worker and she said she could already tell that Dasha is perking up and you are making a difference with her! What a blessing for you and for these children. Carolyn

  28. My heart has been blessed beyond words as I have just read through your blog and witnessed the amazing work of the Lord in the life of your family. I am in awe of His miracleous ways as He has brought Emma and Micah to you. They both are beautiful and I wept as I viewed the pictures of them with both of you seeing the love you both have for them. Thank you for sharing this miracle with all of us who have followed you in your journey. I thank God tonight for blessing your family with a beautiful son and daughter. I pray that God will prepare the hearts of your precious children at home to receive with joy and excitement their new brother and sister. May God continue to go before you and prepare your steps during this final part of your journey.
