I missed 2 more donations!

So I somehow didn't notice, the first time I checked the mailbox, that I also had 2 more donations! These ones come from my 2 youngest sisters... Both $100.  As I mentioned in the post just before this, both of my sisters were adopted in their early teens in 2008 from Russia. It was a 2 year adoption process. U.S. adoptions from Russia have recently closed.

Tatyana Joy is on the left and Anya Grace is on the right.

They are not biological sisters but were in the same children's home when my parents first learned of them. This photo was taken when they appeared before the Russian court to resign their Russian citizenship and testify of their desire to be adopted by my parents.

Tatyana now 18 years old and is our spunky, hard working, fun-loving youngest sister.

Anya is now 19 and is our social and calm sister.

Both girls are amazingly talented in the artistic arena and have excelled in school. Most importantly, both have accepted Jesus as their salvation and anchor in life!

I share this with you all to hopefully edify you all and bring joy to your heart. Adoption makes a difference. My sisters both vocalize their advocacy for adoption and openly speak about their joy in realizing that God orchestrated their journeys, even before they knew Him.  I love them dearly and their financial support  is a huge testimony. It's amazing to see God using their adoption to make another possible.
