Our Story

When our son Jack was born with Down syndrome, we found out we had a lot to learn. Not just about the best way to nuture our child so he would grow up as healthy as possible, but about the whole world of special needs. One thing we learned, children born in some countries who have special needs generally don't go home with their mom & dad. They go to baby orphanages. We have decided to adopt one of these little angels, a beautiful girl with Down syndrome. We found our new daughter through an organization called Reece's Rainbow. They advocate for these little ones, trying to get them into the arms of their forever families. Please go visit. There is a button on the left. These children will touch your heart.

    Julie....THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! For contacting me through Class of 2008. I hope you realize that I am absolutely thrilled that you are getting Dasha. Yes I am completely and truly in love with her but I was pretty sure that we weren't going to be able to get our act together to save her anytime soon. I can't tell you how you just warmed my heart by contacting me about her. I have been fretting that a family was adopting her that wouldn't have a blog and I would never see her again. I can't wait to learn more about you and your family. I really hope you won't think I am a stalker. I am just so excited to be able to follow Dasha with you guys and hopefully contribute financially whenever possible. The only thing I am angry about is that you live in Missouri and not California. Please email me at adjvollmer@aol.com so we can keep in better touch. Thanks again for contacting me...you really just made my day :)
