A Little About Us
Hi there. We are the Millilo family, Robert, Karrie, Steven, Andrew and Evan. We adopted our first son, Andrew from Ukraine back in 2005 at the age of 18 months old. Then God laid on our hearts to go back to Ukraine and adopt 2 more children. That is when we adopted Steven and Evan and came home with all of them on Christmas morning of 2008. They are a dream come true for us and a true gift from God. We adopted them independently with the help from http://www.ukrainianangels.org/ .
Feel free to email us at rakmillilo@comcast.net with any questions you might have in adopting from Ukriane.
