From the Koch Family, who adopted from our same orphanage in the late 90's

The Punzels live in Janesville and just completed the process of adopting from Russia. During the process of adopting, they became pregnant and now have 2 little ones to keep up with. Very cool indeed!!!

Michelle and Michael adopted from the Yaroslavl Baby Home #1 just like we did. They asked us for many insights as to the trips and what to expect, and we are thrilled for them and little Mason.

There is simply no better adoption agency for Russia than EAC. They have a terrific staff in the US and people on the ground in Russia who make sure things go right and on schedule. The mass reunion every Memorial Day at the Cleveland Zoo says it all. They care and talk to you like a next door neighbor. And they're not paying us to say this - ask anybody who has used them in the past.

Mike and Scott work together at GM. They waited about 3 years for their adoption to be completed, but the result was worth it!

A wealth of information here... too bad we've never met Karen...

FRUA provides lots of helpful information to adoptive families. It also is a big help for networking or just asking questions of people who have "been there, done that."

Our son Jack was stillborn on June 5th, 2004. We were heartbroken but continued with our dream to raise a son. He is in our hearts forever and we miss him very much.
