We are the Canestraro Family. In 2005 God started to cause our hearts to ache for the orphans of this world. Are hearts have led us to Astrakhan Russia for our son and to Tianjin China to find our little girl.
About Me
- We are Russ and Monica and have been married for almost 21 amazing years. We love the Lord with all our hearts and hope to be a light to all. We have five kids. We started this blog to record our journeys to our two adopted children.
