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.

One last chance…

When we traveled to bring home our precious girl last fall (the same girl I’m watching follow Jack around this morning laughing and playing), I knew there would be children left there that would stick with me.  Dashlyn was in a different grouppa than many of the other children from that orphanage listed with Reece's Rainbow so I didn’t get to see as many as I thought.  Nevertheless, there were many still there that I hoped would find families and go home too.

I already posted about sweet Masha once.

We have received word that a family has seen her, interacted with her, and she’s just precious.  She’s also scheduled for transfer NEXT WEEK.  We can still save her.  Please read this post on Stephanie's blog.  She really fell in love with Masha.  Please pray for her family to find her asap!
