Larry and Wendy recently adopted Hana from Russia. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This family went through many of the same challenges that adoptive families go through.  Yet, it is difficult to describe the emotional toll of three invetros and two miscarriages.  They began their adoption journey in China, but no longer qualified when the adoption laws changed.  Larry and Wendy decided to adopt through Russia.     

 

They have documented their adoption journey through their blog.  Their heartwarming blog captures the thoughts and feelings while traveling to Russia from both Larry and Wendy’s point of view. 

 

Hana has transitioned wonderfully.  She is a beautiful little girl that is full of life. To read the Shriners blog, click here.
