Kareen's forever family
Kareen's soon to be sisters
Our journey
We have 3 beautiful girls. Our youngest has down syndrome and has changed our lives for the better. We are now on an unexpected journey to bring home a little girl with down syndrome from an orphanage in Eastern Europe. Kareen is 4 and will only be one month older than Bree. We know we have been led by the Lord to this little girl at this time and we are eager to bring her home to her forever family.
