Good News In Wiliamsburg

Steve and I hosted Inna and Katya for the "Russian Shoemaker" November 21-December 5. We decided before they even got here that we were going to look into adopting them. We had seen a picture of them and they were even more beautiful in person. We had a great time with them here. Life in the Rochard household is just not the same, we feel as though we are missing two of our children. Just to give you a little back ground. Steve and I have three children of our own Keely-9, Samuel-7, and Ayden -4,. We have been married 10 years and always had wanted to adopt. We never thought we would adopt an older child. Now we are looking to adopt two older children. I have learned never to put your child order in with God. God already has it planned for you.I am sure his plan is better than mine. So on the journey we go with open hearts and arms knowing that God is in charge. First, Inna had said when she was here that she did not want to be adopted, she feared the whole language barrier,Katya wanted to be adopted, but of course listened to her sister. We called over to the orphanage last week,and waited a week to hear back weather or not she would reconsider being adopted-today we got the call Inna wants to be adopted and so does Katya they both are very excited. The Rochards are ready for two more so everyone hold on tight here we go on a roller coaster ride. God will make it fun. Keeping the faith in Williamsburg. Lisa
