The Sims in Sim City

We just met the coolest people! James and Theresa Sims from Alabama. They are here adopting a little boy named Jacob from the baby Orphanage in town.
They did not have many connections in the city and can not speak Russian so we felt compelled to invite them over and give them a chance to tell us their story.
We got their names from a friend of a friend in Kiev who is Ukrainian and helping them with their adoption. He speaks English and Russian and has been calling them taxis from Kiev to Simferopol to help them out. He's even ordered them food by phone at McDonald's. We decided it was time to help!
It was a blast to have them over and serve them some home cooked fried chicken and learn more about their journey. They have been in the process of adopting for more than 2 years! What patience. Check out their blog sight to learn more!

God bless you James and Theresa!
