The Kvam Family

Michele Lubonis Kvam and Erik Kvam
From Manhattan, New York

My husband and I wanted to adopt a child. We went to a few adoption agencies. But somehow we just didn’t get right chemistry with any of these agencies. We decided to try HAPPY FAMILIES.

My husband and I took a day off from work and went to HAPPY FAMILIES. I had a happy feeling on my way there. Somehow I knew we had made the right decision by visiting HAPPY FAMILIES.

We arrived there. Everyone greeted us with open arms. The atmosphere there was very warm, loving and positive. The women who worked there were all mothers who themselves had adopted children. These women could sympathize with my desire to be a mother.
After speaking to the staff for an hour about our desire to adopt a little girl, we knew right away we wanted to work with them.

They started the paper procedures right away. Natasha, who lives in Russia, was on top of everything. She worked with the best people throughout Russia

Whenever we had a question, we called the agency, someone was always there to give us the information that we wanted to know. Everyone there was very helpful and sympathetic to our needs and wants.

The procedure took than a year, and it went by very fast. As far as the paper work was concerned, HAPPY FAMILIES was very organized. We would get phone calls at any hour of the day or evening with information that we asked for or needed to know.

We went to Russia to get our little girl. We adopted a little girl from Elysta. The orphanage was very clean. The staff was very nice and very caring to the kids at the orphanage. We were in Russia for 7 days. We only made one trip.

We stayed with a very nice family during our last 3 days in Moscow. They treated us like we were part of their family. We highly recommend HAPPY FAMILIES to anyone who wants to adopt a child.
