Happy Birthday Nathan!

This is just a chance for me to ask everyone to remember all of the families who are still waiting to bring their children home from Russia. We have several friends who are still waiting to return to Irkutsk and who have been for a really long time.

Each of the families met their children just after we met Evan in 2004. We felt like we had an unbearable wait for Evan but it was nothing compared to what these families are still going through.This includes one family who's little boy just turned 5. Evan and their son lived together in the baby home.

There are some very important things coming up in the next few weeks and months in Irkutsk that could get the ball rolling again. Please pray for these families and that everything that needs to be done will be and will be done in a timely manner.



Evan asked if we could release balloons for Nathan's birthday to fly over to Russia, like we did while we were waiting for him.
