Tania my princess

Well, after much prayer and many answers...all the same we have decided to bring home Tania also. You can see how much I have thought about her over the years in my first blog post. I'm sure there will be those that will not understand this decision, but we do. There are so many people that do understand completely and support us.  She will benefit so much with a mommy...and a family. I can't imagine her confusion of being moved from place to place several times. She is now moved to the new Happy Home 2 and lives next door to Max/Dillon. She grew up with him for most of her life then was moved away while the 2nd home was being built. Because of Maya's Hope and many other donors these kids are now living cleaner and better than ever in the past. She has always been quite the loner, I'm sure just wondering what her place is in this world. Well, we would like to be that place. She is looking so much better than previously.
Her head is no longer shaved,



and she is looking more like a little girl.


We are working on immediate costs right now. It will take $1250.00 to committ to her, but it has to be donated in our immediate funds paypal donation fund on the right. We are working on this at home to, so whichever comes 1st , the 1st 1250 get her our committment on Reece's Rainbow. She has my heart and I cannot wait to wrap my arms around her.

Its been a long time since my last post. We are still adopting, it just took a while to puts some odds and ins together.  So we are basically at the beginning, but going full force. Ukraine adoptions go by much quicker than Russia, so we have to be prepared to just go! The kids in our little boy's institution are leaving to new homes left and right, which is a miracle really. These kids weren't even known a year ago, now because of a few people who care they have been introduced to the world and now have families, whereas they had no hope before.  I am setting up this page for my fundraising. There are 2 separate donation buttons....One is for those who need to have tax deductions for their donations. This money is not available to us until we travel. The other is our paypal account which will be available to us immediately for our immediate expenses.  These are : Home Study update, USCIS/government approval, facilitator fees, airplane travel, and document processing. THIS is the most important to us at the moment. Every little bit is allot. I absolutely hate this part of adoption. It may be my pride, but it is really hard to ask for donations. BUT...seeing my daughter that we adopted 2 years ago, and the happiness she lives every day, makes it easier to do, because of its cause. It is worth sucking up my pride. I just thought I would take this post and put up our donation buttons. I will start keeping everyone updated on all that is going on :)
