Two years ago, my heart loved this girl as her mother. Because of her, Daniel is my son. I recently learned that she was never adopted and my heart hurts. Will you pray for her and share this post in hopes her family sees her?
When I think of “orphans,” I think of her.
She didn’t ask to be left in an orphanage, but there she is. There she exists. She was born just two months before Daniel was, almost to the day. And Daniel is home and she was left behind.
And so I will share about her with great longing that she becomes part of a family. If it makes a difference, we will financially support her adoption process, though we are still recovering from Daniel’s adoption expenses. She is THAT valuable. What greater investment is there, than to invest in the life of a child?
I can guarantee you that she is not remotely meeting her potential or experiencing life as a little girl should.
Let me introduce to you, a gem of great price… “Kimmy.”
Two years ago, at age 3, she weighed just under 15 pounds and was 31″ tall…. the weight of an average 5-month-old and the height of a 16 month old. I have asked after her growth since, but do not know yet.
She has been diagnosed with cerebral palsy. She clearly interacts with people when they make the attempt to interact with her and when she smiles, my heart swells. She also sits staring, in her own silent world a fair amount of the video. Poor baby.
I cannot name her location or share her name in a public location. But you can know that she is in a country dear to my heart and that she was born in 2013.
I do not intend to mislead you. Adoption is not an easy process, nor is parenting a child long neglected. But there is beauty in love.
Please share my beautiful love, Kimmy, and pray for her to find a family!
Total adoption cost with one person traveling from the west coast is about $25K.
MSRP on a new Ford F250 is about $33K.
I’d rather take out a loan to redeem a life than to drive a fancy new car.
Adoption details:
There is a tax credit that will get you up to $13K back if you have loans to pay off. (We traveled with 3 people each trip and the cost was about $31K.)
The entire process will likely take 10-15 months.
There are two trips required, one for about a week and one for 1-2 weeks.
Only one parent need travel and there are very few limitations to adopting from this country.
Minimum USCIS income is required (125% of US poverty level).
