Recently being an advocate has allowed for me to come across some pretty incredible kids who have been adopted. Some of whom I have met in person and others who's journeys I have been allowed to follow through blogs and other forms of social media. The children who tend to touch my heart the most are those who have serious or multiple special needs. Children like Reign. I have seen first hand all of the amazing transformations that theses kids make day by day, month by month, year by year.<br />

Reign is another beautiful flower just waiting to be given the opportunity to bloom. She has spent a little over 15 years of her life living within the confines of a crib.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Society may look at Reign and children like her and think they have no purpose or use in the world, but the could not be more wrong. For anyone who has spent time with a person who has special needs they know that the truth is the complete opposite. </div>

Children like Reign carry beauty in their souls that is unmatched by anything I have ever seen or felt in my life. They carry sincerity in their laughs and smiles and an innocence in their very being that you have to experience first hand to know is real.</div>

If we do not find a family for Reign by December all of the incredible gifts she holds will not be able to be shared with a family. Someone, somewhere out there will miss out on the beauty that is Reign. <br />
She currently has a grant of over $7,000 to help with the cost of her adoption. If you have any questions at all please please please do not hesitate to ask me.<br />

Especially today. Older kids have my heart, they always have and I pray they always will. Something about kids that people have written off, Kids that no one wants because they want a child they can raise from infancy, Kids that no one wants because they think they have to many "issues." Kids who are aggressive or have behavioral issues, those are the kids that make my soul sing and ache 1,000 times over. So this post is dedicated to all of the beautiful angels out there awaiting their happily ever after. I hope that next time you look at a child you don't see all of the baggage or possible problems but the potential in each and every single one of them.<br />

He seriously has no business in a level III/IV institution. His CP is so mild- he walked around, did all kinds of stuff. He’s smart and funny, he and my translator talked for about 15 minutes and she said he is a “very normal child and good at conversation.” He was very “appropriate”- I don’t know another way to say it- he was quiet and looked at us like “who are these strangers?” and looked to the nannies for approval, and only then spoke to us. My English (and butchered attempts at Russian) made him start to grin but he quickly got it under control and didn’t </span><br />

There are so many boys in this orphanage waiting to be loved and noticed. Please just take a moment to look at their faces, stare into their eyes and acknowledge them as incredibly strong spirited human beings that they are. The amount of inner strength that these kids carry is something you and I could only hope to achieve. When you think your life is bad and you want to give up remember these kids. They have every reason to let go and disappear from this earth but they CHOOSE to have hope. http://reecesrainbow.org/category/waitingbycountry/ee-1/orphanage-68</span></span>Chelsea Justicehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17862319611028453757noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6718320701503865691.post-3825470186847764732013-10-27T21:46:00.001-07:002013-10-27T23:03:48.724-07:00Getting HIM HOME!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

We waited and watched and begged and pleaded and prayed with all of our hearts for a sweet little boy named Andrei half way around the world to find a family. He was running out of time and it was almost to late. Just before he aged out (10 days to be exact) a family stepped out on faith to adopt this sweet little soul. <br />

<br />
That family was the Stolz family. They had NO intention of adopting at the time but GOD had other plans. This sweet innocent little soul who has now waited just over 16 years to have a family now has a mommy and a daddy coming for him. A family who WANTS him and VALUES him. A family who knows that he is an amazing human being who will flourish and grow with love.<br />

Being that they were not expecting to adopt they will need a little help to get him home. They currently have a page set up for accepting donations through You Caring.<br />

I am personally offering a $500 dollar matching grant. As it stands his You Caring account has $3,153. When it reads $3,653 I will donate and additional $500 to his adoption fund. That means that your donations are worth DOUBLE the money. This sweet boy needs to be home ASAP and I know that WE as a community can make it happen. Please do everything in your power to help Andrei. Pray, share, shout it from the roof tops wherever you can. School, home, work, church. Please tell anyone who will listen about this amazing boy who despite all he has been through has the most beautiful smile you will ever see. Who has survived through grim circumstances that we can not begin to imagine or comprehend. I think we could all stand to learn a thing or two from Andrei.<br />

At first glance you make think that this sweet little guy is an 8 year old boy with Down Syndrome who has all the time in the world for a family to save him. Truth is this is a 15 year old boy who is literally down to the wire. He has 13 Days for a family to say YES or his life will be forever lost in the confines of a mental institution. <br />
<br />
<br />
HOWEVER all Brenton needs is one YES. One family to step forward and say that he is WORTHY. That THEY will love him. That they will gladly battle for his life because they KNOW that he is WANTED and not a MISTAKE.<br />
<br />
You don't need to be in a perfect financial position. You do not need to be Home Study ready. You only need to file you i600A with USCIS. You will then be given additional time to complete his adoption. Families are stepping up in swarms to help fund him. He has a $1,700 grant available through Reece's Rainbow. In addition there is a pledge of $1,370 from various people once a family has committed to him and has set up their family sponsorship page.<br />
<br />
This little boy has spent 15 LONG years with nothing or no one of his own yet he still finds the inner joy and STRENGTH to have a smile on his face. If only the world had more people like Brenton. Please consider saving that smile.<br />

An orphanage in Eastern Europe is in DESPERATE need of new windows. Windows may seem like such a small almost unimportant thing to do for an orphanage, but in a country like the one these children live in, it can be the difference between life and death during the winter.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
These kids are regular kids. Kids that you would see every day playing in the street, on a school playground, maybe even in your own home. The only difference is that in their home country they have no value. The are warehoused in old buildings that are literally falling a part because quite frankly no one cares. When they are between 4 and 5 they are sent to these places and hidden away. They are seen as something to be ashamed of, not as human beings who need to be loved or embraced.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
The institution consists of 3 different buildings, but at this time only 2 of them are being used because the 3rd is in such poor condition. Life to Orphans hopes to eventually renovate the third building but they are starting out small and so that means WINDOWS. <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Three RR babies will be will be helped along with the other 150+ Orphaned angels in this particular institution. <a href="http://reecesrainbow.org/category/waitingbycountry/ee-1/orphanage-67">http://reecesrainbow.org/category/waitingbycountry/ee-1/orphanage-67</a><br />

It just burns me up, I swear it does. I will never in my life understand how children with quite large or full grants sit on waiting lists for so long. In this blog I will be highlighting several of those kids who have those grants and still wait for families.<br />
<br />
The first is Alyona she has a $20,000. She is 15 years old and will age out in less then a year. She is listed with Project Hopeful and is Hiv+. She has a younger who was adopted and two younger brothers who are still available to be adopted with or without Alyona. She loves her siblings and speaks very fondly of all of them.<br />

Heath....awww what can I say about Heath. This sweet Angel Boy is almost 11 years old and spent every second of those 11 years being raised by caregivers in orphanages and now in an institution. He is in a very poor orphanage and does not receive very good care at all. A mom who adopted a little boy from Heath's is committed to helping him find a family.</div>

Sometimes there are just no words. No words to describe what you need to do or how you are supposed to feel. Sometimes you have no idea what you are doing. But in the end it is not about YOU. It is about doing all you can to help someone else, even if it seems so so small. This lovely young lady's name is Diana. She is days away from being 16, literally days. I found her photo in the Russian database. She may be listed with an agency or she may not be. She is a lost and lonely soul looking for guidance and encouragement and LOVE. She is only 3 years younger then me and probably been through more in her short time here on this earth then I could ever experience in many life times. She has been through FEAR, REJECTION, ABANDONMENT, and if we don't step up and do something for her she will have to go through one more sad emotion and experience DISAPPOINTMENT. I cringe to thing of the life she will live if we do not step up and save her. I don't know every little detail of how to make this adoption come together, but I would be more the glad to work with you and figure this out. Please do not leave her alone, broken and abandoned. Please do everything you can to save her, no matter how silly it seems.<br />

"O" is short for Orson. He is a beautiful little guy sitting in an orphanage in R*ssia waiting for his <br />
Mama.He is four years old and absolutely stunning. He is of Middle Eastern and Russia heritage. I<br />
am particularly impartial to sweet bronzed babes with dark hair and dark eyes but I mean come on look at that face how could you not be. Anyways back to the point. O baby has been listed on Reece's Rainbow for around 3 years now. His picture has just been sitting there patiently waiting for his mama see his face and make some adoption magic happen. I figure that I would make it a little easier on his mama and try to help his grant get a little higher before she discovers him. As of now his grant has $1,079 in it. My challenge to all of you will be to make his grant read $1,564. Why you as? because when it get to that number, when his grant has $485 more dollars in it I will personally DYE ALL OF MY HAIR PURPLE. Come on just think about it, you know you wanna see it. We have raised $15 so far . I would love to have a story to tell about how all of my orphan junkie friends helped me have a head full of purple hair. In all sincerity every single dollar counts. I know everyone says nothing is to small, and I absolutely mean that. I would be over the moon to see $1 in his grant. I have some big things in the works for this guy and I would love for you all to be a part of it. Please help me get over this first hurdle.<br />

Today I have seen an updated picture of a little girl that I check in on through RR frequently.Her name is Marla and she is 5 years old.<br />
<br />
She is an absolutely beautiful girl and deserves all the love in the world. It is killing me to know that she has gotten so much worse. She obviously not getting very much attention or love or even basic care. I cannot believe that this is what children have to live through day in and day out.She needs her family to get her and to get her right now. She is about to be transferred to an Adult Mental Institution where she will more then likely get much worse (if that is even possible) or die. She needs the kingdom of God to step up for her.To pray for her. To advocate for her. To realize they are her family and pray for her. Please do all you can for Marla. Her life is literally in our hands. Pleas do not let her down.<br />

I was at work the other day singing lyrics to myself and my mental radio started playing 18 and life by skid row. It reminded me that kids who are institutions are not sentenced to 18 and life, they are sentenced to 16 and life. SIXTEEN years old and your entire future is decided for you. SIXTEEN years old. What were you doing at 16? Sneaking out, trying to find a date on a Saturday night, bowling with friends, enjoying the fact that it is SUMMER. Do you know what these kids are doing? NOTHING...and I mean NOTHING. They are not talking, or walking, or playing outside. They are sitting in a disgusting and boring room full of other people.. adults even who are rocking back and forth because of the lack of stimulation and LOVE. These are adults who so many years ago were beautiful babes born just a little different. Babies that their society said was unacceptable. <br />
<br />
There are a total of 64 waiting on <a href="http://www.reecesrainbow.org/">www.reecesrainbow.org</a> that have been listed for years. Just waiting and hoping that their families would find them only to be disappointed day after day.<br />

I need help in a BAD way. The lovely Ms. Melissa Price Lorenz agreed to do a scentsy fundraiser where 20 % of the proceeds will go to one boy that I chose out of a list of names that had been nominated for The Forgotten Boys group. The fundraiser has been up for about 3 weeks and so far we have only made 2 sales :(<br />
<br />
The proceeds were originally supposed to got to Kody, but during the process he found his forever family so I decided to chose another child out of the nominated names and came up with Jason.<br />

As of now he only has $52 in his grant fund. He is in a remote institution, which means he is basically in the middle of nowhere and not getting the best of care. I would really love to grow his grant fund to at least a $100 if not more. I am begging, please do not this fundraiser be an utter disaster. Please help me spread the word for this precious boy and pray every night that he finds his forever family. If we don't come together and rally for him then no one will. He has been listed for 2 and a half years that I know of. and has already spent 9 years without the love that he truly deserves.<br />

He is a wonderfully beautiful MIRACLE. The fact that he has made it all by himself for almost 16 years makes his him and his life a miracle. He has suffered through being rejected by his birth parents, taken to an orphanage, taken to an institution, and being passed over for a family for almost 16 years. He has survived without anyone or anything to call his own. Stefan will be a true blessing to whatever family chooses to make him their son. Stefan is only available to be adopted until this September.That is only 3 months away, but I have seen bigger miracles happen in a shorter amount of time.Please pray for Stefan and help him find his forever family.<br />

This is Steven. <br />
<br />
<br />
Steven is 6.<br />
<br />
<br />
Steven is a blessing straight from our heavenly father.<br />
<br />
<br />
Unfortunately some people have a hard time receiving blessings<br />
<br />
<br />
Steven is a brother and a twin.<br />
<br />
<br />
I have know about Steven for about a year now and have hoped that he would find an amazing family to take him in and still allow him to have contact with his brothers. Maybe they would get to see each other over the summer's and talk to one another often. I hoped they would remain close and one day reunite, but like I said it has been at least a year and he is still waiting. <br />
<br />
They wording on his photo listing still bears the same information. It was nothing that I was not used to seeing, but as I re-read the sentences placed under his picture I just felt like I had been hit by a ton of bricks. I got down right angry.The fact that someone felt he was not worthy enough to be a part of their family infuriated me and made me weep at the same time. I just don't understand. I don't understand peoples logic. I don't understand how it is ok to rip children apart. I don't understand why his worth is not see. I just plain don't understand. I am writing this blog in hopes that someone out there will recognize his true potential and give him the life he deserves.<br />
<br />
SOMEONE PLEASE SAVE THIS BABY.<br />

<br /></div>
This is Karen. She is 16. When you think of being 16 you think of High School, Football games,slumber parties with your friends, and flirting with cute boys. This has not been Karen's experience as a teenage. Her life for the last 7 years has been being seperated from her little sister and thrown into an orphanage. All of a sudden your life doesnt seem so bad Huh??? This sweet young lady has had so many people praying for her and trying to find her a family. This has yet to work out (Maybe that is because YOU, yes YOU are meant to be her family.)<br />
<br />
Karen has a younger sister named Chrystyna who is 10 years old. She was recently transferred out of a mental institution and into a school which is a bigger blessing then I could ever put into words. Chrystyna is suspected to have Fetal Alcohol Syndrome, but nothing is confirmed at this time.She may just be delayed from the time she spent in an orphanage.<br />
<br />
Since Karen is already 16 the only way that she can be adopted is if her sister is adopted with her as well. These girls have been through so much already it would absolutely WONDERFUL to see them re-united once again in a loving home. <br />
<br />
I know many people are scared of adopting older kids but the truth is they are in need of much more guidance and love then you would ever expect. I am 19 years old and knowing that I have my mom to catch me if I fall gives me an incredible peace of mind. Won't you be that Peace for Karen?<br />

This is Karen's Beautiful sister Chrystyna<br />

"Dear Family,<br />
<br />
My name is Jacob, but I go by Jake. I am 17 years old. My dream is to find a family before I turn 18. Other teenagers might wonder why I would want a mom and dad at this age, or they just complain about their parents, but I think I will get further in life with parents. Teenagers should tough it out and listen to their parents because it’s the right thing to do.<br />
<br />
I hope to have a family that will call me and that I could still visit even after I leave home as an adult. I want to spend holidays together. I want parents who will show me what it means to be a family and will help me to know when it is right to have a family of my own one day. I want parents to help me know the right time and right person to marry. I want a model for what a family should be like. I want to learn how to drive, and I love to cook. I want a family to teach me about these things. <br />
<br />
I sometimes want to do my own thing, but I remember one of my foster parents who would tell me to do the right things and keep me safe. I hope that a family will do the same for me. I have been through a lot of tough things in my life, and have learned to tough it out.<br />
<br />
I am not too old to be adopted. I am just like every one of you who needs the support of parents as I head into the adult world." <br />
<br />

I wrote about them <a href="http://savingthebabes2012.blogspot.com/2012/05/i-know-that-many-of-you-want-to-adopt.html">Here</a>. Unfortunately not all of them were able to find their families. These are a different set of kids who need the same thing. They need to be "hosted" which means that they come to America and you make them part of your family for 5 weeks. These kids have until <strong><u>Monday</u></strong> to find "host families." It will cost $2900 per child unless they are in a sibling group in which case it will cost $2,800 per child. I know that it may seem like a lot but all of these kids have financial scholarships to help cut the cost. These kids are available for adoption, but that is nota requirement if you decide to get involved in this program.</span><br />

If that is the case then I have the perfect solution HOSTING. You may not know what that means, so please allow me to explain. If you choose to host a child (<em><u>which a really really really really hope you do</u></em>) That means that you will invite a particular child or sibling group to become part of your family for 5 weeks this summer. Each and every one of these kids are hoping that you grant them their wish to come to America even of for a short time. Some people may be scared that they will let these kids down if they decide not to adopt them, but the truth is each of the children in the orphanage have no choice but to go somewhere for 5 weeks this summer so that they can do maintenance to the orphanage.If they do not come to your home they will go to a camp in their home country which from my understanding the do not like AT ALL. Each and everyone of these child have a grant fund towards the cost of their hosting. These particular kids have until TOMORROW to find a family to host them for the summer. Even if this is not for your family please pass it along. It may be for someone else's. The average cost for hosting is $2900 per child and $2800 for each child in a sibling group.</span></strong><br />

<br />
Boys who often wait until the day the die still holding out hope for 1 thing....LOVE.<br />
<br />
<br />
As you look at each of these boys I ask you to remember that despite their gender, or age, or so called "disability" they were each beautifully and wonderfully made.<br />

<br />
Don't allow yourself to buy the excuse that they are not our problem or responsibility.<br />
<br />
<br />
Don't allow yourself to believe that someone else will come get them one day.<br />

<br />
Most of us have been GIVEN the opportunity to live our lives, but these precious boys have EARNED it.<br />
<br />
<br />
They have fought tooth and nail for their little lives and deserve to be <br />
able to live them to their fullest.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
As I look at each of their amazing faces I cannot even begin to imagine the lives that they have lived and most days I don't want to.<br />
<br />
<br />
The amount of suffering that most of these kids go through is far to excruciating for me to even begin to comprehend.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
So please take a moment to look at each of their beautiful faces, and stare deeply into the wonderful eyes, and realize just how truely blessed you are.<br />
<br />
We are without a doubt these boys' only hope. So scream for them as loud and for as long as you can. <em><u>They are counting on you.</u></em><br />

In the past few days a couple of very terrible situations have come to my attention. Keegan (the blue- eyed cutie above who happens to have Down Syndrome) is just a little over a year old and is facing permanent transfer to an adult mental institution.He lives in Eastern Europe and the orphanage where he currently resides is closing down. At 15 months old this boys is facing having to spend the rest of his LIFE with the very ill people. People who are bi-polar and schizophrenic, people who's lights have slowly faded away because they themselves were delt the same hand as Keegan many years ago. The people in this institution are not only children like Keegan but ADULTS.<br />
<br />
Between the ages of 0-3 are when children gain most of their development. Speaking and walking are developed within the first three years. Imagine spending the most formative years of your life with grown men who rock back and forth babbling to themselves for hours on end.Imagine never getting to get experience the love and comfort of having of a mother. That is Keegan's fate if someone does not spring him from his home country <strong>SOON</strong>.<br />
<br />
He currently has $1,240 to help with the cost of his adoption. He has an issue with his eyes crossing which I suspect is easily correctable.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://reecesrainbow.org/17943/keegan201">http://reecesrainbow.org/17943/keegan201</a><br />
<br />
Keegan can be adopted by married couples. They number of children they already have in their home does not matter.<br />

I posted about Sarah just last week. This little girl who is 6 years old is in a very desperate situation. She is in a place where children who are 14 years old have the body size of a 1 year old. A place where the children get their diapers changed 1 time a day and where they are fed very little. Sometimes they are only fed and changed 6 days out of the week. I cannot even put into words how terrible the place she is at is.She only has a 2 weeks to find a family before her file is sent back and she cannot be adopted.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She is blind. Can you imagine being blind is a place like that? From what I hear blindness is a very managable special need and children who are blind go on to live independently and have wondeful lives. Please consider Sarah and if you cannot adopt her the least you can do is share her story</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She has $287.50 in her account and once she has a committed family I am sure that there will be more assistance for her adoption.We ladies will make sure of it.</div>

<br />
Sarah can be adopted by pretty much anyone singles, married couples, older parents, large families, you name it. She is also in one of the cheaper countries to adopt from.<br />
<br />
As always if you have any question please do not hesitate to ask me. I am more than happy to answer any questions that you may have.<br />

This little girl has endured more heartbreak and pain then you can ever imagine.Yet she still smiles. <br />
<br />
You think you have it bad because someone takes your parking spot, or your wearing last years <br />
<br />
jeans,but you have a roof over your head.Food on your table.A family who loves you. You are <br />
<br />
PRIVALGED in so many ways.This has not been Sarah's experience in life. In her past 6 years she <br />
<br />
has suffered more rejection than most people have to deal with in a lifetime. She has been told time <br />
<br />
and again how useless and unworthy she is .She has 2 more weeks before her file is sent back and <br />
<br />
she is once again told that she is unworthy of being loved.I on the other hand believe the complete <br />
<br />
opposite. I believe that she is worthy beyond words, and that God has a purpose for her beyond what<br />
<br />
any of us can comprehend.We may are all not the same and we each come with our own set of <br />
<br />
challenges. Just like Sarah. I have the utmost <strong><em>FAITH</em></strong> that someone will rescue this sweet girl before <br />
<br />
it is to late. I BELIEVE that God has big plans for her and will not leave her. How would you feel if<br />
<br />
Sarah was your child? If you knew that your baby went to bed everynight unloved, laying in soiled <br />
<br />
diapers. What if you baby had layed in a crib all day long and recieved only enough nutrients to <br />
<br />
sustain her, not even enough to fill her up.Just think about that. Now think about how God feels<br />
<br />
knowing his tiny child is laying there and none of his children are caring for her.As of now she is <br />
<br />
still waiting for a family of her very own.Please do not hesitate to contact me by leaving a comment <br />
<br />
<br />
here of facebooking me.I will be more than happy to answer any questions you may have. I have <br />
<br />
<br />
nothing more to say. So now I will leave you with a quote to ponder.<br />
<br />
<br />
Sometimes I would like to ask God why he allows poverty, famine , and injustice in the world when<br />
<br />
he could do something about it.....but I am afraid he will ask me the same thing- anonymous<br />

Each and every single child on this page is going to age out of the ability to be adopted....that is unless <strong><em>YOU</em></strong> step up and do something about it .As of now the are all in ADULT MENTAL INSTITUTIONS. That is no place for any 15 year old child to be. Reece's Rainbow has been so blessed to recently recieve the files of lots of older kids, several who are still 15 and so dearly clinging on to hope that they will be adopted. Due to their age families need to have their homestudy approved before they make an official committment.We truely are their last chance at a family.So here it goes.<br />

Stefan has a twinkle in his eye that says I will bring more joy to your life than you ever imagined possible.He was born In September of 1996 and has more than likely spent a good deal of his life in a mental institution.Though he is in such a wretched place he has seemed to be able to keep his beautiful spirit and is described as being active.<br />

Blue eyed babydoll is how I would describe Jared. He was born in October 1996 and is described as having the nature of the fun, NOT relaxing. I assume he would do wonderful in a house with siblings.<br />

Miss Laurel carries a beautiful smile despite all of the love she has lacked in her life.She has so many people advocating for her. Trying so desperately to help her find a family. She has a grant of $9,907 from her RR fund and an additional $3,000 grant. All together she has <span style="color: #cc0000;"><strong>$12,907</strong></span><span style="color: black;"><strong> </strong>towards her adoption. A team that met her said that she is very smart and friendly and that she <strong>WANTS A FAMILY TO CALL HER OWN.</strong></span><br />

Karen was born January 12,1996. Even though she is just a few months past the age of 16 she can still be adopted because she has a younger sister . She and her sister Chrystyna are in seperate orphanages but both are in the same region. For Karen to be adopted she MUST be adopted with her sister. She is healthy and smart and has no diagnosed special needs. She goes to school and has no negative behavioral issues. She is just a teen in need of a loving family!Chelsea Justicehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17862319611028453757noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6718320701503865691.post-22516306334781125092012-04-10T15:01:00.003-07:002012-04-10T15:04:22.960-07:0010 AND UPEach and every child in this post has at least one thing in common. They have all been alone.Some for 10 years, some for even longer than that. They have had no mom no dad. Very little to call their own. Minimal food and clothing. Minimal love and attention for that matter. They have experienced true lonliness in every sense of the word. All to often we sit alone at home bored out of out minds when we have nothing to do or no one to spend time with and we consider that lonely.When in all actuallity we haven't the faintest idea of what true loneliness is, but these kids no all to well the pain and heartache that being lonely brings. The consequences of what being lonely is. They have done NOTHING in their life to have been given this cruel and harsh punishment.<br />

Heath was borth April 8th 2001. He has just recently turned 11 years old. Does he look like an 11 year old to you? Heath has been listed on Reece's Rainbow for as long as I have been "stalking" their website. I have know of this sweet little guys existance for almost 3 years.I cannot imagine what this amazingly sweet and beautiful little has endured in all of his years of existance, but that does not mean he is any less worthy or that his need for a family is any less. In fact in my eyes that makes his need evn greater. These kids don't even expect as much as you or I do. Their only really wish is to have a FAMILY. To them that is the greates gift they could ever recieve. Are you their ultimate present?Heath has been in an istitution not for days or weeks or months but for YEARS. Yep your read that right YEARS. Heath has a grant of <span class="donation_meter_amount ltr">$6390.94.</span><br />

This is Adam. Like Heath he has just recently turned 11. He is luckier than Heath because he has been able to attend a mainstream kindergarten for the last year. He has never really had anyone to advocate for him or raise funds for him but hopefully this blog and word of mouth wqill change all of that for this sweet little boy. He was clearly not in the mood to have his picture taken and he needs some help interacting with his peers,but LOVE and siblings will do absolute WONDERS for this little boy.<br />

Bobby is one of if not the oldest child with Down Syndrome listed of Reece's Rainbow. He was born October 30th 1998. He is 5 years and 9 months younger that I am. He has been waiting for a family for 13 long years. He is a very old fashioned gentleman and kissed the hand of his social worker when he met her. He is a apparently a sweet young man who is obviously just aching for love and affection of someone (anyone) for that matter. Just like the rest of us he just wants somebody to love and to be loved in return.<br />

I would like to leave you with pictures of boys like those who have been listed here. They are in just as much need for a family of their own. I know that not everyone feels the call to adopt at this moment in time, but you can still make a difference big or small in any of these children's lives. Please pray and if you feel led donate these sweet boys.If they do not have a donation box please leave me a message or facebook me and I will do all that I can to have one set up for the particular child you feel led to help.<br />

MEET EMMITT<br />
<br />
He is a beautiful 13 year old little boy who's life has been left in disarray due to the circumstances <br />
<br />
he was born into. Do me a favor, Imagine the worst day in your life! Then multiply that by 4,813. <br />
<br />
Imagine having to relive your worst day ever 4,813. That is what this sweet boy has had to do. He is <br />
<br />
living in a mental institution for quite some time but has still managed to stay loving and happy, and <br />
<br />
EXTREMELY INTELLIGENT. He has spina bifida that mostly affects his legs. He cannot walk at <br />
<br />
this time but, he is incredibly loving towards people that he encounters.Two seperate families were <br />
<br />
blessed with the oppertunity to meet Emmitt while adopting children of their own and are just <br />
<br />
begging for Emmitt to have a family. My hope is that you will take the time to share this<br />
<br />
blog. I am not asking you to adopt him, or donate, or anything else<strong><em> (all though adopt or donating </em></strong><br />
<br />
<strong><em>for </em></strong><strong><em>this sweet guy would be extra super awesome)</em></strong> just please spread the word about him. It only <br />
<br />
takes seconds to re-post this blog. You never know who Emmitt's parents may be, and by re-posting <br />
<br />
this you just may give this little guy the life he may be dreaming of.<br />

This little guy as you probably already know is Malcolm. He is almost 5 years old and lives in R*ssia (region 15 for all of you RR lovers.) Malcolm has spastic displegic Cerebral Palsy. Here in the U.S. that seems like not such a big deal, you think ok maybe some physical therapy, occupational therapy, hard work, and poof he is out there living his life just like everybody else. Seems easy enough huh? NOT so much.<br />

Where Malcolm is he does not have those opportunities. His only future is a world inside of an adult mental institution. Yep, you read that right an ADULT MENTAL INSTITUTION! There he will spend the rest of his life not knowing life outside of the four walls of his room. A room where he will be warehoused with 15 maybe 20 other kids with nothing to do besides listening to the moans of the other boys and men who were given the same doomed fate as him. A room where no one will play with him or speak to him softly. A room where no one will come to him when he cries. Does that seem like the kind of live that a 5 year old little boy should have?<br />

This is updated information on Malcolm <strong>From a missionary who knows him: </strong>Malcolm needs family badly. He is very emotional, sensitive and not a leader by nature and is being hurt by older and physically <span>healthy children in the orphanage.</span> <span>He can hardly walk but retains</span> <span>sensitivity</span> <span>in the feet.</span> <span>There is a chance</span> <span>only</span> <span>in the presence of</span> <span>caring and</span> <span>loving parents Malcolm can walk independently in a future but</span> <span>in the orphanage environment the child is afraid of everything even walking</span>. Malcolm has a favorite little toy: stuffed <span>tiger</span>, he carries it <span>everywhere</span><span>, he</span> <span>kisses it</span><span>, puts</span> <span>to sleep</span><span>,</span> <span>worries about</span> <span>it. Malcolm is interested in all new, he knows </span>the names and colors, understands commands, has attachments to friends in a group, he goes on contact easily and is pleased to dialogue.<br />
<br />
<br />
He can stand and move his knees but he cannot currently walk. He can form healthy attachments with his friends in his group and is happy to have dialogue with other people. You are truly Malcolm’s only HOPE. He is scheduled to be transferred to a mental institution aka hell on earth THIS APRIL. Someone, I beg you please find it in your heart to save Malcolm. God will take care of the rest of the details. Additionally Malcolm has a <span class="donation_meter_amount ltr">$7114.22 grant available toward his adoption.</span><br />
