While I have never had a child growing in my belly, I&'ve always had them growing in my heart. Realizing the economic hardships that the world has been struggling through has made me aware of the number of people that are living or merely existing in impoverished and unhealthy conditions and this has allowed me to focus my quest to create my family via adoption. I&'ve had the opportunity to host a beautiful little girl from Kyrgyzstan that visited the states a few years ago with 8 other orphans. I was privileged to go to Kyrgyzstan a year later and reunite with most of those orphans. While there, I visited many orphanages and witnessed the extreme conditions that these kids must endure. Now that the International adoption program is finally reopened there, I am drawn to return to where my heart is and hopefully provide a home for a brother and sister sibling group. I know that raising kids is not easy and having gone through the international adoption process for over the past 3 years has had its unique challenges and I have had to make several sacrifices thus far. However, my determination and love are so strong that I will not stop until I am able to provide them a forever family. While I do have the financial means to care for the day-to-day expenses for 2 kids, international adoptions are extremely expensive. My expected total costs to adopt 2 siblings are approx. $54,345. I am still about $30K away from making this a reality and ask that you be a part of this journey.
