As I watched your video, your story was mine. The infertility, the tears and pain that come with it. I sat here and cried. Thank you for giving me hope. We, too, are just beginning our Russian adoption journey and I know God is going to bless us both. To Kate: “I have failed at many things, but never in my ability to get up and try again” I try to remember this saying when the going gets so tough that I don’t think i can stand. I know that our husbands feel the pain and loss of infertility also, but I know it much deeper for a woman, so from me to you…God Bless and lots of love.
You guys have not changed a bit!!! I know sharing your heart so openly has been a very difficult thing as I think it is for all couples who cannot conceive. Yet, with your openness, I believe God will use your testimony to minister to many hearts, demonstrating how God works in our lives, even through such heartaches. I can’t wait to see pictures of your new little one in the near future! Love you guys and remember our days together at Northside!

Steve and Kate…thank you so much for sharing these videos. While we wait for a referral, it is nice to see someone actually making it happen. May God bless your new family!
This is the first time I’ve ever checked out your blog and I am so touched by your beautiful story! I, too, loved the videos! The pictures are great, but the videos bring the whole story to life! I’ve prayed for you many times, but will pray with so much more passion now that I know….”the rest of the story”, as Paul Harvey would say.
Congratulations!! I just love your blog. My husband and I are considering Russian adoption and your story has inspired me and helped me more than you know. God Bless.
