Blessed With A Richhart!: Our Ukraine Trip To Get Alex

Click HERE to go back to March 17th 2009 and follow our adventure as we travel to Ukraine to adopt Alex.

Welcome!

I created this site in 2008 to stay in touch with friends and family. Unknown to me then, we would soon be going on a life changing adventure, adding a 5th child to our family. In October of 2008 we hosted Alex-a ten year old Ukrainian orphan - fell in love, jumped through all those crazy international adoption hoops & witnessed the many miracles that brought him home to be a part of our family. Forever.
This blog is a journal & record of our whole family and the craziness that goes on but Alex tends to be the focus of most posts. (Because he gives me such great material...everyday!)
Join me as I ramble and record the everyday events in our life and the thoughts that breeze through my head. Can't promise that it's important, grammatically correct or even entertaining but for what it's worth....here it is!
