Welcome to our family's adoption blog! We are Stephanie and Frank Ruckman a family blessed with two daughters living in Tennessee. Frank and I have always felt led to adoption but recently decided it was time to quit talking and start acting. This blog is simply our journey to bring home "baby brother". We believe God brings our families together in many different ways. If you read our blog you will understand that adoption can take you down may paths. At first we thought our child was going to be joining us via Bulgaria now we have learned our journey is going to detour to Moscow!!

Friends in China
Please keep our friends John and Christy in your prayers. They are in China picking up their baby girl Sara. We met John and Christy in adoption class many months ago when we first started the adoption process. They have waited 4 and 1/2 years for Sara and according to the pictures she is apsolutely beautiful!! They have 8 more days days in China and then will be returning to Middle TN. They look so happy! God is amazing!!
Remember, keep your fingers crossed we should be hearing from Bulgaria soon. Just pray they are happy with all of our documents. I looked back at our timeline. They have had our documents for 5 months. They have until September 25th to decide if we can move to the next step.

Prayer
Before I forget we learned that a yard sale probably isn't the biggest money maker. We made $125, but on the bright side it was $125 more than we had. So thank you to everyone that attended!!
Our new prayer is for a project fundraiser we have applied for.
I am someone that doesn't like to just ask for money I would rather work for it. The program we have applied for is called Both Hands and it does just that. If we are selected to be a part of this program we would be raising money for our adoption but we in return will do work for a needy widow. I love the program because we will be working for the donation and continuing to follow God's word that tells us to take care of the orphans and widows.
So keep this program in your prayers. Hopefully we will be able to participate and this would be a great fundraiser opportunity.
Cause like I said before the yard sales just don't get it!! ha! ha!
