~This is the story of our journey to adopt what was a waiting angel in Eastern Europe. Gabby has been home now for over a year and is the greatest blessing we have ever been given! Through our many tears of joy, hope, fear, determination, and anticipation shared during this experience.......we hope you will be inspired to take part in changing the life of another waiting angel/orphan~

~Because~

Each day here in Ukraine, we wake up, get ready, and take a 10 minute drive

to arrive at this orphanage/baby house.....



to walk down this hallway......................



to walk up these stairs.............



to open this door...............



to enter this "groupa" room..........



to get to spend a couple of hours, twice a day, with this little Ukrainian princess.........
















because she is worthy. In fact she is one of the most deserving people I have ever known. She is smart, loving, innocent, beautiful, funny, spunky, sassy, and every little thing that is wonderful! She has so much potential that she continues to show us daily and that she is just waiting to share with the world! She needed a chance, a loving family, we needed to give back some of the blessings we have been blessed with, and a daughter.  God paved the way and we did the work.......it is that simple!

PLEASE consider adopting! It will change your life in more ways than you will ever imagine. You may be thinking you can't do it, you can't afford it, you don't have the extra room or the patience to see it through. We thought all of the same things. You may be thinking you don't even know where to begin.  Start here and now...we will help you in any way that we can.  If you have been wanting a child, or another child, this is the perfect way to get one.  Their are so many children that are waiting here for mama's and papa's! Most are children with "special needs".....children who have not been given a chance because they look different or learn different.  Children here are thrown away like trash to be forgotten about and hidden just because they recieved an extra chromosome.  Allow us to be the first to tell you....Gabby has been the BIGGEST BLESSING we have EVER recieved and she reminds us with each visit that we should take a step back from our daily life and be thankful for all that we have and how easy we really have it compared to alot of people. She reminds us what innocence and genuine love is! She reminds us to reach out to those in need without judgment.  She is worth wayyyy more than any amount of money we have had to pay to get to this point or any amount of work that had to be done.  She is a real baby, with a real heart, a real soul, real feelings, and real needs. Thankfully Gabby's needs will be met! There are many more that will not be.  Sadly, all "special needs" children at Gabby's orphanage will be transferred to a level 4 mental institution where they will be confined to a crib for the majority of their short lived lives.  Even more sad is that most will die in those cribs within a few short years due to lack of medical attention/care, loving and nurturing parents, and nourshiment.  Again, PLEASE if you can find it in your hearts to share some of your blessings with one of these children...act now...don't wait.
