72 hours later

The Lord has brought us almost 3 days past "finding out", and we have done about 3 weeks of prep in such a short time. His Strength is sufficient for me...

It looked like it was going to be hard to find a good flight for Grandma Janet, and then He provided a seat in first class for the same amount of money of an average seat! And I bet this will be her first and only time there, unless He provides the same upon return!!!

We were told to double check our "apostille"...(notarizing the notary basically), because they miss spell names, and sure enough, it was off by 1 letter. I never would have know to what to look for exactly.

We have ran a million errands, and made some meals, and cleaned and laundered, and still have light bulbs to change, and bags to pack, and a few more items to return and a couple thngs to find. Pets to feed and walk, and you know how it goes!

I was concerned about the kids testing, and realized they can do that during this month duration, so all is well there.

All in all we are calmer than were were even 2 weeks ago.

Thank-you for your prayers! Please pray for protection for our family staying home, and for us traveling. I am thank-ful that we have a "gaurd dog", please pray for safety for all of us.

In Him, Alesia & Chris

Pray for those who persecute you....

Matt 5:11 "Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake. Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven...."

Matt 5:44" But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you, that you may be sons of the Father in heaven; for He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.


Psalm 46:1 God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear.....

Phil 4:5-9 Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand. Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy - meditate on these things.


2nd Timothy 1:7 For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.

We adopted 4 older siblings from Ukraine in 2010 and hope we can help.

We will share what we learn and help you when we can. There are great supports here on this page. Sometimes it's one day, moment and breath at a time. And you're not alone. Love, Alesia & Chris
