These are my two youngest sisters, Hannah and Christina (age 9). Aren’t they cute? They were adopted from Russia (same orphanage) when they were around 1. Actually, Hannah had just turned 1 and Christina was about 8 months. So, yeah, I’m about 23 years older than them!

Besides their wonderful, sweet, hysterical personalities, I LOVE the way they bring a smile to my Dad’s face. Since they were tiny little things, my Dad has always completely lit up when they entered the room. At Thanksgiving, my Dad is thankful for the joy that Hannah and Christina bring to our lives. It is amazing to me that these two were considered “throw away” children by some, and yet they are so heartily embraced by our family. That is adoption for you! What a wonderful thing.

    You’re right! And I light up when you’re around, too. And your boys, and your husband.

    This is a gorgeous page and love the story. I am not sure what it is like in the States, but over here adoption is so hard to do. The girls are truly blessed.
