Wicker's Journey

Our desire to adopt began years ago. However, due to our limited resources on adoption and our financial situation we put our dream on hold. Fast forward 15-20 years and our three kids are now grown and in their 20's. We decide to visit an orphanage in SE Asia with our church. This trip inspired us to pick up our dream to adopt.
We signed our adoption papers in May 2005. Our desire was to adopt an older sibling group even though everyone thought we were crazy. Maybe so…but we felt it was right for us.
We decided on Kazkhstan.
In May 2006 we traveled to Kazakhstan. Our trip to Kazakhstan couldn’t have been coordinated any better. Our stay in Kazakhstan was wonderful. We met such wonderful people and we were taken care of very well.
On July 13, 2006 our son, age 13 and daughter, age 11 arrived in the U.S. to forever join our family.
