I am married to my best friend, who I am crazy in love with. I can't imagine life without him. I am a 20-something momma through adoption and birth - I'm in love with each one of my babies and I can't get enough of them. I am a big sister to seven brothers and sisters - who I absolutely adore. I'm passionate about adoption and intentional at recognizing the role God has me at as the second mom to my babies. I am the kind of person who will try almost anything. I love to travel and see new places. I have big dreams for my family - but I know that God's plans are bigger than my imagination can handle and I am excited to see where he will take us!

Please Help!

There has always been a special place in my heart for children with down syndrome. Children in other countries with Down Syndrome are put in an orphanage and their life is over. There is no hope. There are no options. They are not valued.

But I believe that children with Down Syndrome are created in the image of God. He formed them in the womb of their mother. He shaped them - he picked out their hair and eye color. How they would smile. That beautiful laugh. He looked at the child he created and knew that it was good.

Not every family may feel equipped to adopt a child from another country with Down Syndrome. But we CAN make a difference by helping those who DO feel equipped.

I firmly believe that "pro life" is more than just abortion related. It means we value all life. These children are in a place where they are not valued. Where those "caring" for them are just waiting for them to die. You know at 5 years old, they move to an adult institution?

I know the idea of helping can be overwhelming - but coming along side a family ready to do take this step, is not. Your $25 can make a difference and change a life.
