Well... we have changed our mind. We have decided to use the name Darya Elena instead of Natalie. It just feels right! Wanted to show off the latest addition to her room.
We are a couple from Tennessee who have 4 beautiful children. Kerry and I have been married for 12 years. We recently completed our family through the adoption of our daughter from Siberia, Russia. Please feel free to continue following our adventure!
