J and B are high school sweethearts. We met there and continued to date all through college and finally got married 6 months before graduating from college in Indiana. Right after graduation, we moved to Texas for J's job, and B got a job teaching first grade. We became pregnant with our first child born in 2005, but he passed away at 4 days old (read "About Isaac"). In preparation for our first child, B decided to quit her job to stay at home, but went back to be a substitute instead after Isaac died. B then became pregnant again and gave birth to a healthy baby girl, M, in 2006. When she was 4 months old, J was offered a position within his company that relocated us to Doha, Qatar. While overseas, B became type 2 diabetic. We had another baby boy, L, who was born healthy in 2008 and another baby boy, A, was born in 2010. When A was 4 months old (in Feb of this year), we moved back to the US and decided to start our journey to adopt from Russia.
There is a lot we could tell you about ourselves but above all we love the Lord and look to Him for every thing. We hope to create conditions in our home for our children that guides them to love Him as well!
