Mike and I have been married for 16 years. We currently have three daughters, Bella (age 12) and Alliah and Milana (twins, age 10). After a failed adoption attempt, we are stepping out on faith again to adopt. We are in the process of adopting two more children, siblings from Colombia. Their names are Luisa (age 15) and Andres (age 13). Our family of five had the chance to host our kids this Christmas for one month.They fit in with our family so perfectly that we now feel a void at their absence. Mike and I feel so strongly that these two kids are our children. We have completed our home study and anticipate having final approval from Colombia to adopt by late summer 2017. The money we raise through this site will go toward the expense of adoption. The cost of our home study was less this time as we only had to pay for an update. We appreciate any amount you have to share--if each of our Facebook friends donated $20, we would make a huge dent in the total amount! Thank you for helping us give these two kids their biggest hope--a family, while filling the void that now exists in ours. Sincerely, Natasha and Michael Lutes
