This family has blessed my heart! They have opened my eyes a little more to what sacrifice looks like. But through their journey of sacrificing a little they gained a lot!
My favorite part about our session was being able to sit back with my camera and watch the kids express their love through laughing and smiling with each other! They all have so much respect and love for each other and that is amazing to watch. I also so badly wanted to take Sofia home with me…. what a little ham! Joaquin also stole my heart! Their story below:
Hector and Jennifer have been married for over 8 years and have three beautiful biological sons: Diego (age 7), Mateo (age 5) and Joaquin (age 2 with Down syndrome). They thought their family was complete but always longed for a daughter. In December of 2009, Jennifer discovered Sofia at Reece’s Rainbow during the Christmas Angel Tree Project. She sponsored her and instantly fell in love. She thought that Sofia would be the perfect addition to her family of boys. After much thought and prayer, Hector agreed to move forward on Jennifer’s dream and together the family decided to pursue adopting Sofia. They finally brought her home in June 2010 and the boys have their baby sister now. Joaquin and Sofia are almost exactly one year apart so they will be BEST BUDDIES!
