@@StephKarpWrites your so welcome. it is so deserved, I just watched the video again, such a beautiful family, when I looked at you your husband, and the girls eyes all I could see was love. for this little boy may you all be blessed x
@@denkent3633 I'm so sorry to hear of this. I hope as an adult you are able to surround yourself with wonderful people and provide for yourself all the things you need. God bless.
awe he’s such a sweet boy! I’m from Kazakhstan and he’s the same age with my little sis. hopefully you all are doing alright and thanks for giving him such a great opportunity to be grow up in beautiful loving family❤️ I’m going to adopt too when I’ll be older and it’s just so nice to see people adopting from Kazakhstan. so many children in our orphanages, it would be so nice if there were more people like you. have the best time with your family and thank you again!
I was crying for the duration of this video. So beautiful. Thanks for sharing. We, too, are on the same journey, the first ones going thru it after Kazakhstan reopened for adoptions. We have a referral of a boy the same age your son was then, and hence it brought it even closer to home. - Rasna Arora
A beautiful family full of love! Thank you for sharing this with everyone - I really enjoyed the tears and laughter. Major is gorgeous and has the cutest laugh!
Stephanie, I had never seen your video - it is so amazing and almost directly mimics ours, it brought tears to my eyes. Though we've never face to face, I feel as if we are close friends, having gone through such similiar journeys, bringing our 3rd child home, with our other children waiting. What a beautiful family you have. God bless! Kristen Sydow
Its strange but he looks like mommy. This one was hard to watch..to leave him then leave your girls..what troopers you all are. Congratulations and ty for travelling so far..for thinking of those all around the world...waiting for their parents.
stephie! I was laughing, smiling and crying all at the same time watching this! I cannot believe how big Major got and miss seeing the girls! It has been too long since I have seen everyone! You did an amazing job, documenting this beautiful journey and it fills my heart with such joy that step by step you realized your dream- What a BEAUTIFUL FAMILY YOU AND GARY CREATED! LOVE YOU! XOXO
What a beautiful experience, and this is such a gorgeous, professional looking video montage. It certainly brought a tear to my eye. I'm sending it to my girlfriend right now. I feel so blessed to have met you both. : ) Luisa
@@MashVB That is so great to hear! Where was your son adopted from? My son is now 12! I am sorry I waited so long to reply, didn't know enough about youtube back then to have seen the messages. Now will try to upload more.
@@MashVB I just cried through your glorious birth video. Beautiful and powerful. I have two bio daughters and then my son. While I would have loved to have experienced birth as you did, I did give birth on A Baby Story for my first daughter.
Major is gorgeous. I love Kazak children's chubby cheeks. My sis and bro=in=law adopted a boy and a girl from there. The boy, Brody was 8 months at the time and is now 12. If you sent me a quick message with your e-mail address I could send you a pic of him so you can see how gorgeous he is. It somewhat will let you see how your son will look in adolescence. My nephew Brody could be a model. The children over there are gorgeous.
Hanna thanks for watching. To be honest, I started our researching Romania which is where my grandparents were born. When I found out Romania was closed to US adoptions at the time (not sure about now), I almost gave up. Something compelled me to continue to research countries that were open to US adoptions. In 2008, when we began the process, I had not been familiar with Kazakhstan. I learned about the country and found others on the internet who adopted from there and it felt like I was led to a new place where a child was waiting for me.
@@StephKarpPhoto WoW that’s great thank you. I’m only 17 but for the last year I’ve felt a deep desire to adopt from Kazakhstan! So thank you for your answer
Hanna this is wonderful. I wanted to adopt a child since I was 18. I never thought it would happen in a way. I got married and had two biological children. And then at some point I felt I wouldn’t be living my truth if I didn’t pursue adoption. I am so thankful I did. I would be happy to talk to you any time about it, even years from now when you are ready. Xoxo Stephanie@StephanieKarpWrites.com .
Beautiful family.....Congratulations! By the way, your video is done very well. We have adopted a son from Russia. You can check my video on my profile! Best wishes from all of us :)

Thank you so very much! He is currently a very happy and healthy 12 year old boy.
What a beautiful story and family. I think he is such a little cutie and he looks like he is actually biological, i mean he looks like all of you:)
Thank you so much!
Awww he's such a sweet, gorgeous little boy! 💖💖💖
Thank you! The little boy is now 12 years old :)

How did your adoption process go?

I'm sorry I'm seeing this message so late! Your nephew must be 19 now! My son is now 12.
Piccoli 😥✌👨👩👧👧👨💼

Super important day!
Karp is a Polish surname :)
I believe it is also Russian. Thank you!
