Living life one day at a time as a family of six...3 busy and bouncy boys and 1 Ukrainian princess. Our third son Joaquin was our unexpected blessing who came to us with a little something extra called Down syndrome and inspired us to adopt Sofia an orphan we fell in love with through Reece's Rainbow. We hope that our story will help open people's eyes to the beauty and gift that ALL children are. We are all more alike than different!
Wow! One could just have mentioned Reece's Rainbow more clearly, and for example given the adress of the homepage, to give more orphans an even bigger chance to be adopted!!! Rahel
What a great interview!!! Jennifer you did an outstanding job with answering questions and advocating for adoption and especially adoption for children with Down syndrome! BEAUTIFUL! Loved how Joaquin kept trying to make his way to the camera!
What a sweet heart!! I can't believe she's now really home with your family! Such an amazing story. I am just so happy for you all. What an answer to prayer! Oh, and Joaquin is such a ham stealing the show lol!
Loved it! Thanks for sharing. I've been following your blog for a couple of months now. We are also adopting a baby with special needs from Ukraine. DS is on my heart too- maybe someday!
Oh my gosh, I just saw this and it is so AWESOME! I am sitting here with tears in my eyes and I do not even know you guys. Look how great little Sofia looks. She looks like she has been in your family forever. Thanks for sharing. OH yeah! Joaquin is so adorable too. You are going to have your hands full with both of them but it will be so worth it.
