Kris and I were married in April of 2001. We were blessed to add Alec to our family in 2002. After a few years of struggling with secondary infertility, we decided to adopt from the beautiful country of Guatemala. Our sweet daughter Mikayla Faith joined our family forever in January of 2007. We are so blessed and feel like our family is now finally complete!
As coordinator of the North East Ohio Guatemalan Adoptive Families Group, I felt it was important that we give back to a country that gave us so much! Together, our group donated the money to sponsor the follwing two students, Pedro and Ana. With our donations, these two sweet children will now be able to attend school this year. Please consider helping a child attend school! www.mayanfamilies.org
