About Me

Wendy: United States; Hi! So glad you are here! I am first and foremost a Christian, a follower of Jesus Christ, married to my best friend Todd of 13 years, and a mom to 6 special children. My passion is working with my dear friends with disabilities. We adopted Joshua, a sweet little boy with Down syndrome from Russia in July 2011. We called him 'Our Little Guy' until we decided on a name.

EYES OPEN

"...once our eyes are opened, we can't pretend we don't know what to do. God, who weighs our hearts and keeps our souls, knows that we know, and holds us responsible to act."
Proverbs 24:12
