A GIRL for the Culbert family — TN

Hello, we are the Culbert family; our family consists of myself, my daughter Emma, and our pets Blue, Winnie, Penny and Tonks (two cats and two dogs).  In 2021, God put it on my heart to adopt a little girl with Down syndrome from Bulgaria. I was blessed to have been matched with Emma, who came home in February 2023. She has been such a joy and bright light in everyone’s lives!

Recently, God called on me again to adopt, but this time it was for a waiting child who had multiple special needs and medical needs, formerly known as “Beverly#” on RR, who I lovingly nicknamed Ladybug.

Unfortunately, we suffered the heartbreaking loss of my sweet “Ladybug” who passed away before I got to bring her home to join our family. Though no one can replace my precious little Ladybug, I am back on the waiting list to be matched with a little girl in Bulgaria who has Down syndrome. I am excited to meet the little girl that God has already chosen to join our family.
As a single mama my hands and heart will be so full of love for my two girls, but with the support of our family and friends, we will make sure these girls have the fullest lives possible!

I would be forever grateful for your help in being a part of our journey to family!
