Kalina arrived from the orphanage at 11:30 a.m. today! Hasan's mom went to get her. So far she has had two bottles, two diaper changes, and one nap. She started on a 2nd nap but seems to find it much more fun to look at us. She'll rest for 5 minutes and then want to stare at us for a while. She's a very sweet and happy little baby! We'll send many photos soon. In the meanwhile, thanks so much for all of your prayers! We'd like to thank my mom, our family, our prayer team, my students, our friends from SCC, my teacher buddies, and everyone out there who is praying for us and following our story! Now we need prayers for US approval. By the way, our little princess is already a daddy's girl! I think it only took one smile!
"If you believe you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer." -Matthew 21:22

Nadeem and Sherri,
Yeah! What great news! My class of second graders have been praying for you. I can't wait to tell them the news at school tomorrow. Their parents ask me about you too. The adventure now begins. God bless the Kaiser family of three.

Thank God for Baby Kalina! We are so happy for you all and praying for US approval. It is on its way via our good and gracious God! We love you both and pray for a safe and speedy return of your expanded and beautiful family.

Yeah! I was waiting to hear this! You're almost through this tough journey...give her a hug and a kiss from me - and the kids. It will have to be a family visit for us! Praying for the US to hurry up!
Your journey inspires me. After each one of your posts I feel so much emotion that I want to cry. All the love I have for my own daughters bubble to the surface because I know how Kalina will change your lives. Your absolute faith is amazing. I can feel both your frustrations and your victories in your words. It makes me want to be closer to God in my own walk. There is no way that you can be denied now. God has set this motion and he will see this through. I can't wait to meet Kalina in person.
Your brother, Eric Valeri
