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.

Fundraisers

We need money to bring home our girl. We are still many, many thousands of dollars short. We have tried to have fundraisers but either plans don't work out or we weren't able to make much money. We going to have a Chevy's fundraiser so if you're local, come by and have dinner! I'll post the date as soon as I get it from them. Second, what do you all think about a reward for donations? Like an IPOD, or a netbook? Let me know what you think and we'll do that soon, like next week.

There are many families or people trying hard to raise money to get beautiful, deserving children home from orphanages. I've decided to try to post about these efforts when I see them. I'll probably miss some, but I'll be trying to catch as many as I can, and let you know about them. Here's the first :Stephanie wants to give someone an IPOD! Check it out!
