Bo is in Our Arms Where He Will Stay!

August 19, 2014

Daddy and Bo

Our path to adopting Bo has been full of twists and turns, but has led us to an amazing, sweet, perfect son.  On July 28, 2014, we finally had Bo in our arms where he will stay!

GiGi’s Playhouse Des Moines has been a huge part of our story.  We were the first recipients of the GiGi’s Playhouse Adoption Sponsorship Program.  In the last couple months before we traveled to get Bo, GiGi’s Playhouse Des Moines awarded us a $5000 sponsorship to go towards the costs of our adoption.  It really helped take away some of the last minute stresses of adoption.

Family at Bo's HomecomingI will be happy to talk to anyone about our adoption experience, and what it is like to adopt a child with Down syndrome.  Also please feel free to read about our journey on my blog:

There are so many beautiful children with Down syndrome hoping to find a family of their very own.  Are you the family they are looking for?

Thank you GiGi’s for making a difference in Bo’s life, and helping us add him to the GiGi’s family!

Best,

Meg
