Birthday Celebrations!

October 04, 2015

Lucy and Lucas turned 2 years old yesterday. They are doing very good. We also celebrated Luke's and Leah's birthdays too. Leah is 22 yr.old and Luke is 14. Time definitely is going really fast. I guess because we are getting older and pay attention to a lot of stuff. Like even if the tree is turning different colors. In a couple of weeks we are gonna be celebrating Anna's, Lily's, Andrew's and of course our favorite mama's birthdays. Very excited.

About Me

My name is Rachel Briggs and I am 21 years old.I was born in a small village in Ukraine.My parents had only 5 girls in the family.One of them was from another dad.Our dad passed away when I was 8 yr.old.My mom got a disease called TB from our granddad and she died in 2002.We were sent to the orphanage in Donetsk,Ukraine in 2003.It was hard growing up around those kids,because they pick on you or bully you.I got saved in a Christian camp there during the summer of 2004.I asked our director if we can be adopted into a family.We got the news in 2008.They found a family that was interested in us.In June 2008 we got adopted into a family that had a lot of kids.We were the first biological sisters that got to be in a same family.I am very thankful for our new Mommy and Daddy and that they picked us.They had a lot of different kids that they have been looking at,but they were stuck with us.I got baptized on April 8,2012 at the church,during the Easter morning with my sister Leah.This is a forever home for the kids that this family has adopted.They will always be loved and cared for.Thank you God for this amazing family.
