Our Fellow Adoptive Parents

On September 9, Tammy and Kevin wrote a comment on my blogsite in which she mentioned meeting us. Here's how we came to know them:

During visiting hours at the orphanage, four sets of adoptive parents meet with their children. Three of us are American couples, while a fourth is German but former residents of Kyiv, Ukraine. Kevin and Tammy Huckabee are from El Paso, Texas, and they came to Ukraine to adopt one child. The older boy they chose to meet has two younger siblings living in Mikola's orphanage, and the Huckabees are now going home with three children from Kirovohrad, as well as their three-year old daughter from the U.S. who accompanied them on the trip.

The Huckabee's website is:

If you peruse their site, the pictures of the younger children are taken on the grounds of Mikola's orphanage. Photos of their older son were mostly taken at the orphanage for school-age children, where our oldest five kids lived. The city scenes are from the same streets of Kirovohrad that we are walking each day. I haven't had time to read the Huckabee posts, but I'm looking forward to doing so.
