Dennis is Home Video

Now that Dennis is home, I thought it would be nice to make a video of him with all of us. He is so much a part of our family. Hope you enjoy!

Dennis' Adoption Video

Here is the video of our adoption of Dennis. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I have enjoyed making it.



I have to admit that I have been preoccupied with making this video the last three evenings. Making it has been so therapeutic for me..... I've missed Dennis' smile something fierce. I can't wait to make a montage when he gets home!

Videos

Wow- two posts in one day! I just wanted to post some of my favorite videos about adoption and street children. I can't imagine not having your heart stirred after watching them. My own heart breaks for these children each and every time I watch these videos. Keep them all in your prayers.

Please leave a comment to share which video touched you most, if any at all.

Open Arms Ukraine

Since I won't have much to report on the adoption, at least for a while, I wanted to share some other things in the mean time. I found this video on You Tube and was very touched by it. I thought of Ashley, Debbie, and a few others as I watched it. I love the pictures of the boys asleep. Something about a child sleeping, even a teenage boy that seems angelic to me. :)

Enjoy, and don't be afraid to act on the heartstrings that might be pulled on while watching this video.

What was I thinking?

As you can see from the video, I am truly a nut. But, I also love my children so much, and am already thinking of things to take to Ukraine that will make our new son laugh and smile. Don't you think this froggy is just too cute?

Down memory lane

Since we have started a new, long ride to Ukraine to find our son, I wanted to post these two videos of our two trips to Russia when we adopted back in 2005. Boy, does it bring back memories, and I look forward to making new ones.
