Kimberly and Rob Henneberg

are adopting a child from United States of America

We have BIG news! We are adopting a child!

We have felt for sometime that our family is not quite complete, and we are pleased to share with you that we have been accepted into an international adoption program with the agency where Rob used to work.

We are beyond excited and are doing everything we can to be prepared to welcome a beautiful new life (or lives) into our home. It may surprise you to hear that international adoption related costs can easily total up to $35,000 or more. As part of our adoption process, we have started a crowdfunding campaign to help ease the financial burden that often overwhelms adoptive parents.

We hope that by inviting you into this process, you will see yourself as part of the community we hope to build around our child as he/she grows up. We look forward to keeping you posted as we continue this journey!

    One Month Home!

    May 22, 2023
    We landed on American soil on April 21 and celebrated one month home yesterday! God has been so faithful to abundantly provide for us in so many ways, big and small. Thank you for supporting us on this journey and thank you for your patience as you waited to hear from us! I've included a brief update below. Purva (poohr-vah) is doing amazingly well. She is a joy to know and we are honored to get to be her family. She has a delightful personality and is often laughing or making us laugh as she gets to know her new... Read more

    In India! Almost time to meet our girl . . .

    April 8, 2023
    Our agency called on a Friday to let us know it was time to travel to India to pick up our daughter! We left less than 2 weeks later and are now in Delhi, India. We left late on Wednesday and arrived in the wee hours of the morning here on Friday. After sleeping most of the day at our hotel, we had the joy of meeting up with Virginia-based friends who happen to be here in India during spring break. It was a delight to see familiar faces, experience their hospitality and enjoy a dinner of authentic homemade local... Read more

    It's official! Once an orphan - now a daughter

    March 6, 2023
    We are thrilled to share that we recently received our written Adoption Order from India, which declares "P" to be legally our daughter! It's hard to describe how it feels to have a daughter we've never met who is literally on the other side of the world, but our immediate instinct was to throw a party and celebrate! Her status has legally and permanently changed - she is no longer an orphan, she is a DAUGHTER, forever. We can't wait to meet her. We are waiting on her passport to be processed and will likely be traveling to India in the next... Read more

    Adoption Update - Getting Closer!

    January 14, 2023
    Dear friends and family, We are making progress and every day brings us closer to the day when we will bring our daughter home! We received a brief update and a few photos and video from the orphanage in early December. Our girl is still ineligible to receive treatment for her clubfeet, but she doesn't let them slow her down! It's truly amazing to see her walking. We think she is absolutely beautiful and has a smile that will light up a room. We can't wait until we are able to share pictures with you! In December we received Article 5... Read more

    We are MATCHED!

    October 19, 2022
    We were approved to adopt from India in September 2021. One year later, in September of 2022, we were given the opportunity to review a referral of a child in an orphanage who is in need of a forever family. We are thrilled to share that we said "yes!" and are now matched with a little girl in India! She recently turned two and is absolutely precious. We are working hard to complete our dossier (a bunch of documents that will eventually be sent to India) as we wait for United States Customs and Immigration to approve our request to... Read more
