We feel blessed to be parents of 5 fabulous kids! Our youngest two joined our family through China Special Needs adoption in 2005 and 2008. In the summer of 2011, we participated in an orphan hosting program of children with no more family options in their own country. We were privileged to have a sibling group of 3 sisters from the Philippines spend 3 weeks in our home. It was a joyous, special and loud 3 weeks of getting to know these precious girls. When they returned to the Philippines, we went to work on adopting them. We live in a state that doesn&'t make adoption of large sibling groups into already "large" families an easy thing. It took 3 social workers, many advocates and a move of God to get an approval for our family. That approval finally came in June 2012! Now, it is full speed ahead towards our new daughters. We are looking forward to their joining our family, but we are sobered by all that they will be leaving as they start this new life. We would love to have you join us in praying for their hearts and ours as we become family. Through AdoptTogether, you can also help us with your tax deductible gifts. Thanks for every prayer and every dollar!
