Keep your eyes upon Jesus


We are in Kazakhstan. It's been a very very long time since I've posted. We've been here for a couple of weeks now. I miss our children terribly! My heart aches for them and I have another month and a half to go!!! Goodness!
We're very blessed to have other American families here; some who live here and one who is also adopting from the same orphanage. We are having as much fun as one can have in over 100 degree temperatures. In July, we are told, it will be around 120 on a regular basis. Woohoo. (not very enthused about this). Everything is dusty, dry, and hot. Did I mention that it's hot here? lol
We found out that friends of ours in the states can mail us care packages! We're really excited about that! It takes about two weeks to get here. We will be very happy in two weeks. :-)
All joking aside, we are finishing up our bonding time with our beautiful little Sophie! She will be turning two in July! About one week after I turn 39!!! Just a few years difference there. ;-)
We are praying for a quick court date and perhaps even some leniency from the judge to expedite things because we'd like to get her to a physician in the States for a medical concern.

We sure do love her, and we know that she is already a huge blessing to us. We thank God for leading us to her, and giving us the chance to give her a great life! She can share those beautiful Kentucky Sunsets with us too!

That's all for now.
