Bringing Artyom Home

The adventure of bringing Artyom home has been in the works for over a year and the final chapter is about to begin. Neil and I will be flying to the Ukraine on Sat.,
Sept. 6th, and will be arriving on Sun. Sept. 7th to finish the process of adoption.
Artyom is a very bright and kind 14, soon to be 15 year old boy. He is very excited for us to come to the Ukraine and adopt him. His dream of having a family will become a reality in about a month. The adoption process in the Ukraine takes about a month, therefore Neil and I will be gone, and our great kids will be taking care of things at home. Devin and Lauren will be staying with the girls, and we so appreciated their willingness to help. We will miss our sweet family, but we know that Heavenly Father will watch over them while we are gone. Thanks to all of our love ones, and for your support and help in making this dream for Artyom come true.
