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.

No Matter What!

Al will get that darn autobiography done this weekend! He has an extra day, since Mon is a holiday. If I have to read him those questions myself, it will get done! Then I have only a few more papers to collect & a federal fingerprint appt. Then I get the whole mess notarized, fax them to make sure they are correct, get them apostilled (!), and send it all off to EE! Except for the federal fingerprints, I could get all that done next week. Next week! Oh, and then there's that matter of $20,000. But we're having a rummage sale next Sat, so that should take care of that, right?? Plus the big family potluck/picnic on June 27! Send good thoughts!
