I made my first trip to Haiti in 1998. Fell in love with my first orphan in 2000. Started a non-profit to help Haiti in 2003 and started taking teams down on short-term mission trips soon after. I fell in love with Wanna and Fritzon (and a lot of others in the same orphanage) in March of 2010 and had to wait over 2 years to start the adoption process due to the laws of Haiti and a process that is always changing. Our documents were finally submitted and accepted in the fall of 2012 and are currently moving through the court system. We are quickly (hopefully) approaching the end of our adoption. This is my blog to talk about all things related to our adoption and any thing else I think is relevant to it. Enjoy!

One Less Orphan...
My friend flew to Haiti today to pick up her son, Jack, and fly him home. I hope that my kids will see that and know that I'm coming soon for them. I pray they know how much we love them. My heart also aches for all the kids that never get to be a part of a family... For those who have always dreamed of a mom and dad of their own. It's very difficult for me sometimes to know that we are taking 2 but leaving behind so many others....
