“If only 7 percent of the 2 billion Christians in the world would care for a single orphan in distress, there would effectively be no more orphans.”
–Steven Curtis Chapman

Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world. ~James 1:27
About Me
- Rebekah
- We are just an ordinary family serving an extraordinary God, and He has blessed us beyond our wildest dreams. We are high school sweethearts who have been married for eleven years. We adopted our son, Steven, born November 2007 and his biological sister, Michelle, born December 2008 and then added a biological baby, Mabelyn, in March 2011. We also have two critters--Sadie, our Golden Retriever, and Josie, our grey cat.

There are no unwanted children--just un-found parents.

we were on the list of waiting families for just 1 month when another agency contacted us and needed a home for Holden. it wasn't how we imagined the process would go - it was super fast and honestly life couldn't be happier now. i love to see pictures of your steven! he is a CUTIE!
I'll try giving you a call tomorrow. My aunt will be visiting tomorrow for a little while and I have my doctor's appt in the afternoon. Other than that I am free and can call you. I look forward to chatting with you.
I know....that quote really makes a person think. We are certainly considering adoption NOW because of secondary infertility, but truth be told, we talked about it even when we were dating....though we always thought it would be a baby from overseas. I have always been struck by the babies in the Romanian orphanage we went in. Remember that day? I know Romania is closed to adoption now, but I think that's the first time I ever really considered it. I never though we'd be doing US adoption, though now I couldn't be more excited....who knows. Maybe someday I'[ll get my Romanian baby too :)

This one shocks me everytime. I placed this on my blog a while back and I got some really weird responses from angry adoptees so now I screne my comments. When I write about adoption on my blog for some reason these people I have no idea who they are comment. Anyway, it is the reality of it. Makes you really think and humbles me everytime. Take care!
