I have much to write about and tell you. Yet, when I sit here all I can think about are the 143 million+ orphans around the world that need forever families. The over 1/2 million kids in the US foster care system that need their families loved on and repaired. The over 100,000 that can’t…

God is still in the miracle business
RAD ODD PTSD “We are absolutely amazed that you have stuck with him this long” “It would be completely understood if you walked away from this child right now” Those were some of the labels and statements made to my husband and I, by social workers, psychiatrists and therapists, over the last 12 years of…

Christmas Warrior
I’m a Christmas Warrior for BLAKE. Is that not the cutest face you have ever seen? I have committed to praying that this little guy finds a forever family and fundraising for his adoption fund this month. The Bible has a lot to say about caring for widows and orphans…to my count, this mandate is…
Modern Day Miracle
Who would have thought that a rickety roller coaster and a sweltering day at a cheesy quaint amusement park could bridge huge holes of the heart? God. Who would have thought that the day would be full of smiles and fun, rather than anxiety and angst? God. Who would have thought that racing go-karts together (see…
God sets the lonely in families…
Many of you know that orphans (and to me this is any child without parents- foster children or orphans in Ethiopia) have always been a passion of mine. Now, reading Radical, has lit a fire under that passion once again. Reignited the passion of my heart in a way that can’t and won’t burn out. Yes,…
Adoption is forever…

He’s My Son
Chubby little fingers find their way into my hand. His (almost) three year old little self pulls me energetically towards the kittens down the hall… “Tome on mommy, let’s go look at the kitties” (except he said his hard c’s and k’s like t’s so you can imagine how comical that was). The fact that…

This is a ministry serving the needs of children around the world with Down Syndrome and other special needs, helping them find their forever families. While it was…
