The Mr and O. She loved have a Dad! |
This is our beautiful daughter Olena. She has come to us a different way, but we feel that she is ours all the same. She is beautiful and funny and a special part of our family. Olena came to live in the orphanage because her mother and her stepfather along with some siblings, passed away. She tells us she can't speak English but she really can. She is very smart and a little shy until she gets to know you! She has seen so much sadness in her short life and we can't wait to show her how happy life can be.
This is Anastasia (Nastia). We found out about Nastia just before arriving in Ukraine. She is Olenas biological sister and was in a different orphanage about 6 hours away. The two girls hadn't seen each other in almost 4 years.
After meeting her we decided that she was our daughter as well, and started the process of bringing her home with Olena.
After this amazing adventure, now comes the fun part, of teaching them both English and doing things the 'American way'! Please join us on this fun journey.
