At some point, believing in God must lead to trusting and honoring Him in what we do. This is part of our journey as we adopt our baby girl from Kazakhstan.

God Smiled on Us Today
First time they met
First time she smiled
In a remote Kazakh village, God smiled on us today.
Congratulations! She is beautiful. Sounds like those warm winter jackets are really coming in handy....now maybe you could find some grips for Monte's shoes to keep her safely on her feet. :)
What a beautiful addition to a wonderful family. We are very excited for you and so happy to follow in your journey. Cannot wait to meet her in person. Monte, please do not fall anymore!! Jonathan is home sick today - so he is very excited to see Nick's little sister!!
Rich and Monte, oh my gosh is she beautiful! She is not only a gift to you, but you are a wonderful gift to her. Your story telling is so interesting. What an adventure! Noah's G & G
Everyone here is GLUED to their computers, anxious to hear how you all are. Those first pics came on last night, and there were collective sobs of joy ringing thru town! We all love you guys, and continue to pray around the clock. Sorry you fell Monte, but I have to admit I was nearly falling out of my chair laughing at the mental picture Rich gave us. Also laughing at the thought of you and all your luggage...only Monte! God bless your days with your new baby...what's her name?!?!?!?! love ya jan
OMG - she is adorable! Thank you so much for the pics - looking forward to more!!! We are praying for you all! Love and kisses to and your newest addition!
