In 2004 we made the decision to start our family by adopting from Ukraine. It took 1 yr, 11 mons, and 21 days, but in November of 2006 we were finally united with our daughter. Though the journey was a long and exhausting one, she was well worth the wait. Feel free to read her story...from the very begining through her first year home. Welcome to the Warchol Adoption.
Every 18 seconds, a child becomes an orphan. Lets not forget about them.
The children who are available for adoption in Ukraine are not allowed to be photographed and "published" for view due to current Ukrainian laws. This is meant to protect the children and eliminate the chances of unethical or illegal adoptions . That is why in my slide show you will not see any full view faces of the children from the desky dom.
2011: Olena Now!
How Olena got here...
We left for Ukraine on November 10th, 2006 to go to Ukraine and returned home on December 17th, 2006. You can follow our journey from the begining by clicking on the November archive link below.

I have bought clothes there for Olena, my family and even to sell on EBay for extra money! I have decided to become a selling agent so that I could get an even bigger discount! Check it out, and if you decide to place an order, enter my discount code MK23094 - this will save you even more money. HAPPY SHOPPING :)
Meet Gene...
Gene Sagin was our regional translator while in Ukraine, and he is now a life long friend. He helped us along our journey and made us feel extremely welcome and comfortable while in Ukraine. He has a big heart, loves his job and loves the children of Ukraine. We are and will forever be grateful for his hard work and dedication. We will one day return to this great country and reunite with the man that lead us to our daughter.
Gene works to complete bio-family searches throughout all of Ukraine and is very reasonable with his fees. He also is willing to assist families as a translator/guide for those who just want to visit Ukraine. If you are interested in Gene's services please feel free to contact me and I will provide his email address.

Love the pictures! She is the cutest little thing!:) I've doen the sugar high thing too and I agree with you. They fly and crash and the result is not pretty:):):) LOL! Lyra is all in to "gymnastics" too. Olena rolls over so nicely!
I love catching up on the Warchol and Kissack pictures and blogs and noting all the changes in Olena, Lyra and Angelina too. They are all maturing and look so different compared to orphanage life. I still cry when I watch the video of their life at the orphange. Some parts are humorous but I hope someday these three little girls and many others realize the opportunities they have been granted through adoption.
We get to see Brian, Pam and Angelina in 23 days(who is counting)? They will be in Chicago for Angelina's baptism and Grandpa Joe and I are attending.
By the way Olena's hair looks darling. I can tell she is truly enjoying life with her Mom and Dad. I really liked the beach picture of Olena.
Angelina's Grandma Jeanie
Great slide show! Boy does that bring back the memories:):):) Loved it.
