A life of an Ukrainian orphan

I was born in a little village in Ukraine.I was the second oldest.I have two other sisters one older and the other one is youngest.My parents were not christian and we did not attend church at all.So I didn't know God or who he is. It was pretty sad.Our dad was been killed or that what the people told me there.I still don't know the truth,but that does not matter anymore.We left with our mom to live with our grandpa but he got very sick, and didn't want to go to the hospital so later he past away. Our mom got the same disease as our grandpa it called TB.She died in 2002 and we been send to the orphanage in 2003. We were sad when they told us about our mom.
     In the orphanage life was not easy for any kids.We had some Christian people come and talk to us about God.We got to go to the Christian camp every year during the summer.I was glad that I went.I learned about God but not all the way.I got saved in 2004.We also had some Americans who would come and do a bible camp in our orphanage for a week.I thought that we would not have another family ever.In 2008 I have been asking our director is there any family that would be interesting in adopting us?Well, we got a response. There was an American family that was interesting in us, and they are Christians.Also, they have a lot of kids.Well I didn't care I just wanted parents who would love us as their own.We got adopted in summer of 2008.
     We got adjusted very well. We also got a better education then in the orphanage. If you get sick you will be taken care of much better here then there.You are well fed and you know that there is always protection in your family.I will just say this,"why do most people say things but not respond to the needs around the world and here too". Like if  you tell people that you are adopting and they say oh, that is amazing.Why don't they start doing the same?Because if people start caring more about kids and saving their lives rather then dogs.I know dogs are best friends, but what about kids.If we start caring for one orphan kid at a time there would be no more orphans.Because they would be raised in a loving family.Who would love the least of these?I know that God would.

Finishing Tia's birthday!

Today we went to Lancaster,PA.We went there with Joseph (our driver),Mom,Leah,Lily,Tia and I.Tia and I totally loved the area and the fields.The little shops that they have were pretty cool to visit.We all had a blast there! We bought some stuff from the stores that we liked.Our mom got some flowers for the house and of course a cook book.We saw a lot of bible verses and some of them that we liked.There is one verse that  says,"I can do all things through Him who gives me strength.(Philippians 4:13).This verse is taped to our mom's computer desk.We see it every time when we come to her and ask for something.This is the other one."But if serving the Lord seems undesirable to you,then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve,But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord." (Joshua 24:15),and (1 Corinthians 13:1-8).     We saw a lot of Amish people at the book store. It was run by an Amish man.Some people could be very rude don't you agree with me

Fall Season and Birthday celebration!!!!!

 This is the thing that we did for our mom's birthday present this year.   Took us a little while to complete it but the hard work always pays of it the end.  After it was finished it looks great:)  The roof looks like a country barn style.  Outside throwing the leaves at me. They are trying to be funny.  Milo and Mady actually got some leaves in my jacket and thought it was fun to do it. Mady and her sister Kloe.  They all came up with the idea of the seesaw on the swing. Pretty clever guys!  Like I told you before that sometimes they ask to us my camera to take pictures. This is the sunset that Lila took . Gideon saying, "what's up".  Mady told me that she is the angel.   We call her marshmallow because of her jacket.  Somebody wants a swimming to swim in. Jesse was diving into the pile of the fallen leaves. Sisters and a brother on the move.  So a cardinal on the pine tree by the swimm

Creak  Olympic circle apparently they are yellow I made this dandelion crowns for all the girls there, and of course my hands were all covered in yellow color. Releasing the crowns into the water Jesse wanted me to make him a bracelet out of it.We also saw kids music pastor at that park.His wife learned how to make one of this crowns. We learned how to make them when we were at the orphanage.We never knew that this flowers are actually weeds in America, and we never cared. Because they were really pretty.
