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.

More Later…..But NOW -

006 003 004 005

She wasn’t too sure about us (and the date is wrong on the blasted camera) but she let us each hold her and yes, there is squish there but it’s well hidden under layers of clothing.  Definitely weighs more than Braska but less than Jack.  Unreal to actually be holding her!

    FINALLY!!! And oh my, so worth it. She is bigger than I imagined, but just as adorable as I knew she'd be. Woo Hoo!!! Now I'm even more impatient for this to all be over. (And I can't wait to get that hair a-growin' and get some special bows made for that little head!)
